[NOTES/CM-05009] Keplar Orbit ParametersThe equation for the orbit involves two constants of integration. We determine these constants and obtain an expression for the eccentricity in terms of energy angular momentum etc.. Conditions on energy for different types of possible orbits , elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic, are written down. |

[NOTES/CM-06009] Cross Section in Terms of ProbabilityThe definition of cross section is formulated in probabilistic terms. This interpretation turns out to be useful for interpretation of the cross section as an area, and also for quantum mechanical problems. |

[NOTES/CM-02006] Generalized Force and Lagrange Equations -- An Example$\newcommand{\pp}[2][]{\frac{\partial #1}{\partial #2}} Whenever the generalized force \(Q_k\) \begin{equation}\label{AB01} Q_k=\sum_\alpha F^\text{(e)}_\alpha \pp[\vec{x}_\alpha]{q_k}. \end{equation} can be written in the form \begin{equation}\label{AB02} Q_k = \dd{t}\Big(\pp[U]{\dot{q}_k}\Big)-\pp[U]{q_k} . \end{equation} the equations of motion take the Euler Lagrange form with \(L=T-U\). It is demonstrated that the Lorentz force,the force on a charged particle in e.m. fields, has the form as in \eqref{AB02}. An expression for the generalized potential \(U\) is derived. |
