Conquering the Physics GRE (Kahn, Anderson):
1.1 Blocks, 1.2 Kinematics, 1.3 Energy
Been a while since I did basic mechanics! I forgot how both fun and tricksy it can be. No real stumpers in practice, but did forget gravity in one problem and rotational energy in another.
Quantum Optics - An Introduction (Mark Fox):
All chapter 1 (Introduction), 2.1 Maxwell’s Equations, 2.2.1 Diffraction
Good review. Thought I’d go start at the beginning instead of jumping straight to the actual quantum part of the optics.
