MST121 Study materials have arrived.

The second half of my Open University course books for MST121 Using Mathematics, have finally arrived today.

This is where the maths really picks up and I can't wait to get started on it.  It consists of introductions to some of the core subjects, that I will be learning, in detail, as I progress towards becoming a theoretical physicist.  The subjects are all at the heart of quantum processes and are the mathematical tools needed for most physics applications, whenever you are dealing with particles and nuclear processes.

The course-books cover the following subjects:

Differentiation and Modelling
Integration and modelling
Differential Equations and modelling
Probability studies
Modelling distributions and deviations
Statistical Investigations

These subjects will be studied over a period of 4 months and will be tested by two pieces of coursework and a final marked assignment.
