This series of ‘Physics Beyond the House’ videos is derived from lectures shared with students as podcasts created during the 2012-13 academic year at the UK’s University of Kent, where I lectured within the School of Physical Sciences (https://www.kent.ac.uk/physical-sciences). With their permission I am making some of the material available here. This is primarily for the benefit of the members of my local branch of the U3A (University of the Third Age) in Canterbury (UK) since they are unable to participate in face-to-face learning given the on-going COVID-19 restrictions.

Please see my blog for details: https://bobreflected.blogspot.com/2020/06/physics-beyond-house.html
this will serve as a Contents Page for the video series.

Video 1 is focused on the uncertainties associated with experimental data and why that is so important.
Videos  2-19  cover topics in the Physics of Matter
Videos 20-36  cover topics in the Physics of Waves & Vibrations
