Résumé
Practical Physics demonstrates the purposive and critical
approach that should be made to all experimental work in
physics. It does not describe a systematic course of
experiments, but is intended as a companion to any
undergraduate course of practical work. The text is in
three parts. The first deals with the statistical treatment
of data, the second with experimental methods, and the
third with such essential matters as keeping efficient
records, accuracy in calculations, and scientific writing.
The text is liberally illustrated with examples and
exercises, with solutions to the latter. The new edition
includes a treatment of the c2 distribution, a section on
atomic clocks, worked examples based on spreadsheets, and
additional exercises. Existing examples and references have
been brought up to date. Although intended for
undergraduates, Practical Physics has proved of interest to
school-students, teachers, and researchers, not only in
physics, but also in other branches of science.
