About this product
Product Information
Recognizing a growing trend to involve more students in research projects earlier in their academic pursuits - t only in physics, but in academia in general - this first-year physics laboratory manual is geared toward inspiring student interest in pursuing research, providing students with the opportunity to gain research experience during their first year of physics, and preparing students for prospective undergraduate research projects, whether it be in physics or ather discipline. An optional research project is built into the curriculum such that students will submit various components of their research projects throughout the semester so that by the end of the semester the project is complete, thereby removing the burden of an overwhelming assignment due at the end of the semester. Brief descriptions of numerous computer-based research projects are provided. The lab write-ups also intend to prepare students for independent research.Product Identifiers

Author BiographyChris McMullen is a physics instructor at Northwestern State University of Louisiana. He earned his Ph.D. in phenomenological high-energy physics (particle physics) from Oklahoma State University in 2002. Originally from California, he earned his Master's degree from California State University, Northridge, where his thesis was in the field of electron spin resonance. He has published several papers on the prospects for discovering large superstring-inspired extra dimensions at the Large Hadron Collider. Dr. McMullen has taught first- and second-semester physics labs, at the trig-based and calculus-based level, at four different universities using a wide variety of equipment, sensors and computer interfaces, and software programs. He has authored the laboratory manual for NSULA and LSMSA, and has involved several students with research projects as part of their first-year physics lab.
