PY 309 - Advanced Lab


The course is intended to explore more challenging lab concepts in Physics. Experiments are either drawn from topics in modern physics, or in a larger, semester-long experimental project (e.g. the design and fabrication of a tabletop spectrograph in Spring 2011). Students are expected to understand all aspects of the experiment including data acquisition and error analysis, and an in-depth understanding of the equipment used in the experiment.

Prerequisites: PY 211 and MA 211
