Archive of past written tests

A collection of past written tests of the Structure of Matter 1 class, with "official" solutions, listed by date YY-MM-DD (21th-century), and classified by topics. The 12-letter key
  [AZCRVESFBsbp], refers to:
atoms:
  [A ]tomic GS & spectra
  [ Z ]eeman & Paschen-Back
  [ C ]ore levels
molecules:
  [ R ]otational spectra
  [ V ]ibrational spectra
  [ E ]lectronic states & excitations
statistics:
  [ S ]pin/few-level systems
  [ F ]ermi-Dirac statistics
  [ B ]lackbody and/or bosons
solids:
  [ s ]tructure & diffraction experiments
  [ b ]and states & energies
  [ p]honons For a few of these problems, detailed worked out solutions are available in this site. Specifically regarding molecules, (spin) systems involving a finite number of states, the Fermi gas model, and blackbody radiation.

An online forum is available where students@unimi can discuss difficulties encountered in the solutions of specific problems.

Students@unimi have better be aware of the functioning rules of written tests.

Many thanx to all those who identified&reported bugs in the above solutions!
