-
3.00 Credits
Individual research or special problem projects supervised by a faculty member, also, when a student and instructor agree on a subject matter, content, and credit hours. Prerequisite: "Independent Study" form must be completed and submitted to the Registrar. Variable credit; 1 to 6 credit hours. Repeatable for credit.
-
3.00 Credits
The third course in introductory physics for scientists and engineers including an introduction to the special theory of relativity, wave-particle duality, the Schroedinger equation, electrons in solids, nuclear structure and transmutations. Prerequisite: PHGN200/210; Concurrent enrollment in MATH225. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
A course parallel to PHGN300 but in which the subject matter is treated in greater depth. Registration is strongly recommended for physics majors or those considering the physics option, but is not required. Prerequisite: PHGN200/210 and concurrent enrollment in MATH225 or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Demonstration of the unity of diverse topics such as mechanics, quantum mechanics, optics, and electricity and magnetism via the techniques of linear algebra, complex variables, Fourier transforms, and vector calculus. Prerequisite: PHGN300, MATH225, and MATH332 or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to laboratory measurement techniques as applied to modern physics experiments. Experiments from optics and atomic physics. A writing-intensive course with laboratory and computer design projects based on applications of modern physics. Prerequisite: PHGN300/310 or consent of instructor. 1 hour lecture, 3 hours lab; 2 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to digital devices used in modern electronics. Topics covered include logic gates, flip-flops, timers, counters, multiplexing, analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog devices. Emphasis is on practical circuit design and assembly. Prerequisite: PHGN215. 2 hours lecture, 3 hours lab; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Introduction to the Schroedinger theory of quantum mechanics. Topics include Schroedinger's equation, quantum theory of measurement, the uncertainty principle, eigenfunctions and energy spectra, angular momentum, perturbation theory, and the treatment of identical particles. Example applications taken from atomic, molecular, solid state or nuclear systems. Prerequisites: PHGN300 and PHGN311. 4 hours lecture; 4 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Celestial mechanics; Kepler's laws and gravitation; solar system and its contents; electromagnetic radiation and matter; stars: distances, magnitudes, spectral classification, structure, and evolution. Variable and unusual stars, pulsars and neutron stars, supernovae, black holes, and models of the origin and evolution of the universe. Prerequisite: PHGN200/210. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Continuation of PHGN315. A writing-intensive course which expands laboratory experiments to include nuclear and solid state physics. Prerequisite: PHGN315. 1 hour lecture, 3 hours lab; 2 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to show the application of physics to biology.It will assess the relationships between sequence structure and function in complex biological networks and the interfaces between physics, chemistry, biology and medicine. Topics include: biological membranes, biological mechanics and movement, neural networks, medical imaging basics including optical methods, MRI, isotopic tracers and CT, biomagnetism and pharmacokinetics. Prerequisites: PHGN 200 and BELS301/ESGN301, or permission of the instructor, 3 hours lecture, 3 semester hours
