Richard P. Feynman California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1965. We have a habit in writing articles published in scienti c journals to make the work as nished as possible, to cover all the tracks, to not worry about the blind alleys or to describe how you had the wrong idea rst, and so on.

These are notes Richard Feynman made in 1961-64 to plan and prepare lectures for Caltech's two-year introductory physics course. The originals are preserved by The Caltech Archives in their Feynman Papers collection (Group II, Section 4, folders 39.9, 40.3, 40.4 and 40.5). 1 Photos of Feynman giving his undergraduate lectures (such as that ...

1–1 Atomic mechanics. “Quantum mechanics” is the description of the behavior of matter and light in all its details and, in particular, of the happenings on an atomic scale. Things on a very small scale behave like nothing that you have any direct experience about. They do not behave like waves, they do not behave like particles, they do ...
1–1 Electrical forces. Consider a force like gravitation which varies predominantly inversely as the square of the distance, but which is about a billion-billion-billion-billion times stronger. And with another difference. There are two kinds of “matter,” which we can call positive and negative.
Feynman's Messenger Lectures were videotaped by the BBC, who in 1965 published a hardbound book of edited lecture transcripts under the title, The Character of Physical Law.In 1967 the paperback rights were licensed to MIT Press who continues to print the book today. 5 The videotapes were transferred to film, and in the late 1960s through the '70s copies of the films were in wide distribution at colleges and universities. 6 Sadly, however, these wonderful films of Feynman lecturing at the ...
The four lectures in Feynman's Tips on Physics were given by Feynman in 1961 for the same introductory physics course as those in The Feynman Lectures on Physics.The online edition of these four lectures was prepared from a PDF of the Second Edition of Feynman's Tips on Physics provided by our publisher Basic Books. We are greatly indebted to Natallia Piatrenka for her help in preparing the figures, and to Michael Godfrey for proofreading.
