PHYS 410 - Advanced Laboratory in Physics

Prerequisites/Corequisites: Take PHYS-220 PHYS-314. (Required, Previous).
Credit Hours: Min: 1; Max:

Description: Students will learn experimental skills in physics by performing advanced undergraduate physics experiments that involve laser spectroscopy, interferometry, resonance, Fourier methods, digital oscilloscopes, and single photon tests of quantum mechanics. Students will learn methods for communicating scientific results in the form of formal laboratory reports, including the appropriate scientific content, style, format, clarity, and analysis. Students will also learn oral presentation skills by preparing and delivering an oral presentation on one of the advanced undergraduate physics experiments.
