• PHYS 3410: Modern Physics Lab

  2.00 Credits

  East Tennessee State University

  
  Prerequisites: PHYS 2110 and 2120. PHYS 3410 is an advanced experimental course, structurally similar to lower-level General Physics Labs (PHYS 2011, 2021) offered to non-physics students. It is complementary to upper-level lecture courses including Atomic and Nuclear Physics, Optics, and Electromagnetic Theory. The course consists of a set of experimental problems covering selected topics in particle physics, atomic and molecular structure and wave phenomena.
