Classes
-
PHYS 125: Analytical Physics II
An analytical, calculus-based treatment of charge, electrostatic and magnetostatic fields, simple applications of Maxwell's equations, Lenz's law, basic electrical circuits, mechanical and electromagnetic waves, and geometric optics.
-
PHYS 362: Intermediate Laboratory
Devoted to the understanding of some of the classic experiments in physics. Experiments are from all fields of physics, but particular attention is given to experiments which complement courses being taken concurrently.
-
PHYS 385: Optics
This course will explore multiple descriptions of light leading to an exploration of modern applications of optics. Models of light explored will include physical optics, geometric optics and Gaussian beam optics. Some of the applications discussed will include imaging, fiber optics, lasers and nonlinear optics.
