Description
This document is a guide that can be used by undergraduate physics students alongside Richard J. Jacob and Professor Emeritus’s Tutorials in the Mathematical Methods of Physics to aid in their understanding of the key mathematical concepts from PHY201 and PHY302. This guide can stand on its own and be used in other upper division physics courses as a handbook for common special functions. Additionally, we have created several Mathematica notebooks that showcase and visualize some of the topics discussed (available from the GitHub link in the introduction of the guide).
