Course Outline from Syllabus: In this course you will be performing four experiments. While the overall outline of the
experiments will be provided, with pointers to technical data, much of what you do in the
experiments will be up to you. For each of the experiments, you will individually turn in a
formal report (typically 5-10 pages) describing the motivation, theory, procedure, data,
analysis, results, and conclusions from your experiment.
Professor: Dr. Charles Lane
This class contains 4 experiments, each of which with a formal lab report. The first two labs are guided by the TA explaining how to use the equipment and potential experiments that we can do. The group decides what to do from these ideas. For the second two labs, the group chooses an experiment to do based on the equipment available. This includes coming up with an experiment plan based on some loose ideas recommended by the professor. There is also a presentation at the end of the quarter where each group presents a walk-through of one of the experiments they conducted during the quarter.
