Lecture Notes


Lecture notes for Physical Models of Living Systems
given in the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
Heavily based on Philip Nelson’s book by the same name.

Lecture notes for the ICTP Trieste course in March 2025 – The physics of ecosystems.


And companion python code.

Introduction to quantum and solid state physics
Lecture notes for a one semester course in basic quantum and solid state physics intended for second year engineering undergraduates. A background in basic mathematics is required: multi-variable calculus, linear algebra, basic ODE and familiarity with complex numbers. I draw heavily on Cohen Tannoudji’s and Ashcroft & Mermin’s books.
