About this film

MIT 8.13-14 Experimental Physics I & II "Junior Lab", Fall 2016 View the complete course: https://ocw.mit.edu/8-13F16 Instructor: Gunther Roland, Janet Conrad, and Sean Robinson Junior Lab consists of two undergraduate courses in experimental physics. The course squence is usually taken by Juniors (hence the name). Officially, the courses are called Experimental Physics I and II and are numbered 8.13 for the first half, given in the fall semester, and 8.14 for the second half, given in the spring. The purposes of Junior Lab are to give students hands-on experience with some of the experimental basis of modern physics and, in the process, to deepen their understanding of the relations between experiment and theory, mostly in atomic and nuclear physics. Each term, students choose 5 different experiments from a list of 21 total labs. License: Creative Commons BY-NC-SA More information at https://ocw.mit.edu/terms More courses at https://ocw.mit.edu
