Vinay will present the second discussion on diffusion tomorrow. In the last discussion, he discussed different methods to deal with diffusion in equilibrium system. This time, he will start with a review of the last discussion and then he will discuss the case of diffusion under external potential.

Time and venue for the Discussion:

Time: Saturday (October 07, 2017), 2 PM
Venue: 326/327

Slides from the first discussion on diffusion:
