Learning outcomes
|
The aim is to study atomic physics, nuclear physics and physics of elementar particles. The most important historical experiments are discussed. Problems of measuremnt are discussed to. The experimental work is concentrated on the basic measurement in atomic physics.
Define the main ideas and conceptions of the subject, describe the main approaches of the studied topics, recall the theoretical knowledge for solution of model problems.
