Synopsis
A revision of the leading text on experimental physics. The feature of this book that has made it one of the most loved texts on the subject is that it goes far beyond a mere description of key experiments in physics. The author successfully provides the reader with an understanding and appreciation of the 'physics' behind the experiments. The second edition will be an extensive revision introducing many new devices, including the use of computers and software programs, that have come into use since the publication of the first edition. In addition the important areas of condensed matter physics and optical physics will be added, including two entirely new chapters on lasers and optics.
- Modern analysis and acquisition techniques
- Integration with matlab for data analysis and display
- New experiments include fundamentals of lasers

From the Back Cover
This long-awaited revision of this highly popular text on advanced
laboratory experiments has been thoroughly updated to include modern
techniques and experiments of current interest. Important additions include
two chapters on lasers, an entirely new chapter on electronics as well as
new experiments on the electronic properties of solids.
Data acquisition by computer and data analysis tools are widely used. New
experiments on chaos, Berry's phase, saturation absorption
spectroscopy and muon decay have been added. As in the previous edition the
emphasis is on results obtained by students.
This text is addressed to juniors and seniors enrolled in an advanced
laboratory course in physics. In the past it has also proven to be a
valuable reference for instructors, graduate students and professional
physicists.
