No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1993–94 to 1994–95 (before that, 1990–91 to 1992–93 used the number for Classical Mechanics 2); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Canonical transformations, Hamiiton- Jacobi theory. Perturbation theory. Hamiltonian chaos, nonlinearity. integrability and the KAM theorem. Prereq: PHYS 263 16:113
As printed in the 1993–94 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
