This is the Modern Physics Laboratory, taught by A.
Greer. In this laboratory course we will learn about and perform
many of the classic experiments that led to the development of Modern
Physics. Most of these should have been covered, at least
briefly, in the PHYS 205 course, which you should at least be taking
concurrently with this laboratory course. A list of the labs
available (in no particular order) to be done is:
| Lab

| Oscilloscope Lab (only for those
who have not had electronics) |
