Draft papers

This section concerns work which I would like to submit for peer-reviewed publication, but which either I feel is not yet ready for submission, or for which I haven't yet found a suitable journal. It is here because I'm looking for collaborators to help me develop it, to a stage where it is ready for submission, and to suggest appropriate journals. Although each piece of work contains a ``To Do'' list, suggestions for other developments are also welcome.

Courses I've Taught

My most recent teaching assignment has been providing small-group classes, at second-year undergraduate level, in Classical Dynamics and Fluids, for Peterhouse.

I've also provided similar classes on a second-year undergraduate Methods of Mathematical Physics course, at Emmanuel College and Peterhouse.

While I was a post-graduate student, I provided the same type of classes on first-year undergraduate programmes in Mathematics for Natural Scientists and Physics, on behalf of Girton College.

In addition, I've undertaken team teaching of larger groups, in second-year undergraduate Advanced Physics practical classes, in Systems and Measurement, and Waves and Optics, at Cambridge University.
