Synonym: 61906

Melissa Eblen-Zayas

A study of experimental techniques and apparatus basic to the measurements which underlie and validate contemporary theories in physics. Topics include electrical measurements, data analysis and statistics, optical and laser techniques, particle detectors, and time coincidence techniques. Applications are made to experiments such as magnetic resonance, Mossbauer and nuclear spectroscopy and laser optics. Class time is devoted to studying the measurement techniques and considering phenomenological models of the effects observed in the laboratory. One laboratory per week.

Prerequisite: (Physics 227 or 228) and 235 and (Physics 335 or Physic 346) or instructor permission

PHYS 400.04 Integrative Exercise 3-6 credits, S/CR/NC only

Open: Size: 4, Registered: 3, Waitlist: 0

Synonym: 61911

Melissa Eblen-Zayas

An extensive study of a specific topic in physics, culminating in a 60-minute presentation during winter or spring term and a 7500 word paper. Students may arrange to complete the bulk of their work during winter or spring term (Physics 400, 6 credits), or divide their effort between terms (Physics 400, winter, 3 credits; Physics 400, spring, 3 credits).
