| Experiment | Computer Control? | Optics Table Needed? | Light Sensitive? | Shareable? | Other Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oscilloscope | No | No | No | Yes | Requires an oscilloscope and function generator for each student |
| Speed of Light | No | Yes | No | Yes | Requires fast (>300 MHz BW) oscilloscope. Can be done in 1 session if optics set up beforehand |
| Acoustic Impedance Spectroscopy | Yes (Jr Tower 2) | No | No | Yes | New lab by Jim Thomas, uses Matlab. Needs long table |
| Balmer Series | No | No | Yes | Alignment and calibration can change if setup is shared between sections, and data-taking is split between two sessions | Can be done in 1 session by 1 person (longer with 2) |
| Poisson Statistics | Yes (Jr Tower 3) | No | No | Conflicts with Compton Scattering | Can be done in 1 session |
| Planck's Constant | No | No | Yes | Yes | |
| Compton Scattering | Yes (Jr Tower 3) | No | No | Conflicts with Poisson Statistics | |
| Electron Diffraction | No | No | Yes | Yes | |
| Ratio of e/m | No | No | Yes | Not easily shareable between sections | |
| Franck-Hertz | Yes (Jr Tower 1) | No | No | Not easily shareable between sections | Labview VI in Public folder of admin account |
| Electron Spin Resonance | No | No | No | Not easily shareable between sections | |
| Charge of the Electron | No | No | No | Not easily shareable between sections |
