Research shows that effective college learning requires active learning involving active participation of students in the classroom [1]. This is especially true in introductory condensed matter physics which involves plenty of visual understanding to learn different types of crystal structures

quantum cosmology). Many newly developed concepts and techniques in condensed matter physics stemming from the investigation of disordered, dynamical and complex systems can guide us in asking the right questions and formulating new solutions to existing and developing cosmological issues, thereby

Important progress in understanding the behavior of hadronic matter at high density has been achieved recently, by adapting the techniques of condensed matter theory. At asymptotic densities, the combination of asymptotic freedom and BCS theory make a rigorous analysis possible. New phases

Previous attempts to accurately compute critical exponents from Wilson’s momentum shell renormalization prescription suffered from the difficulties posed by the presence of an infinite number of irrelevant couplings. Taking the example of the 1d long-ranged Ising model [1], we calculate the momentum shell renormalization flow in the plane spanned by the coupling constants (u0, r0) by a simulation method based on our recently developed Fourier Monte Carlo algorithm [2, 3]. Carrying out such simulations for different values of the momentum shell thickness parameter b, we report [4] strong anomalies in the b-dependence of the fixed point couplings and the resulting exponents yτ and ω in the vicinity of a shell parameter b ∗ < 1 characterizing a thin but finite momentum shell. Evaluation of the exponents for this ”optimized ” value b ∗ of b yields a dramatic improvement of their numerical accuracy, indicating a strong damping of the influence of irrelevant
