-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
The student will participate in on-going faculty-directed research. This will include involvement in the solution of a theoretical problem or in experimental work such as the design of an experiment or experimental apparatus, acquisition of data, and/or data reduction and analysis. This course is required for students planning to graduate with departmental honors. For honors credit, the work must also include presentation of the results in a scholarly publication or at a professional meeting. Course may be repeated for a total credit of four semester hours. Graded on an S/U basis.
-
3.00 Credits
A study of how atomic and nuclear radiation interact with humans and their environment—with special emphasis on the technology of measurement and criteria for evaluation. Discussions of basic radiation properties and radiation detection as well as special analysis techniques such as neutron activation and X-ray fluorescence will be integral to the course. Prerequisite: PHY 1104 or PHY 1151. Lecture three hours.
-
1.00 Credits
Laboratory investigation and skills development aligned with the methods of PHY 3850. Basic detection involving GM, gas flow and scintillation detector systems, pulse height analysis, statistical tests and treatment of data, utilization of neutron activation and X-ray fluorescence will be featured. Field trips may be required. Corequisite or prerequisite: PHY 3850. Laboratory three hours.
-
1.00 Credits
An introduction to technical and research journals in the areas of physics, electronics, and astronomy. Methods and references for use in literature searches, including computer methods, and the preparation of technical papers will be examined. Required for students seeking departmental honors.
-
3.00 Credits
A course designed to introduce the student to modern techniques and algorithms in computational physics, involving solutions of real physical systems using techniques from interpolation, optimization, non-linear least squares, the numerical integration of ordinary and partial differential equations, Monte Carlo methods, Fourier analysis and stability analysis. Applications of these techniques will be selected from the areas of mechanics, optics, modern physics, astrophysics, engineering, signal processing, and electromagnetism. Programming will be carried out in a computer language such as ‘C’ or Fortran. Prerequisites: PHY 2010 and PHY 2020 (with a grade of "C" or higher in each) and MAT 2130, or permission of the instructor. Lecture two hours, laboratory two hours. (COMPUTER) [Duallisted with PHY 5020.] Dual-listed courses require senior standing; juniors may enroll with permission of the department.
