Old MSci Physics and Astrophysics Lecture Notes



The following lecture notes are from the University of London Physics BSc and Astrophysics MSc and related degree courses as given in previous years, (eg. the MSci Physics and Phys/Astrophysics EuroMasters degrees from around 2000-2011). Most are PDF files and some MS Word and PowerPoint files. Some of these degree course lecture notes may be incomplete or unavailable, but additional notes and course material has been included. More lecture notes and other material may become available here in the future.
