For reference only. Please don't copy them. You're better than that.
Some advice: Learn LaTeX for writing reports (tutorial by David Wilkins can be found here) and gnuplot (for graphs). Avoid the Gravity Torsion Pendulum and anything in the dark room if you value your sanity.
Rutherford Scattering
This will likely make any LaTeX enthusiasts vomit on their keyboards. It was a first attempt, please don't judge me.
The Michelson Interferometer
Avoid this like the plague. Took nearly a whole lab just to set up.
Coupled Pendulums
The computer does most of the work.
Logic Gates and Flip Flops
Very handy. You could write up the whole report for without ever touching the equipment, though that's probably ill-advised.
Minimisation Problems (Computational Labs)
Both this and the other programming lab were quite handy for TP's, as we did a programming module in first year. Didn't matter that much, as most of the code was already written for us.
The Non-Linear Pendulum (Computational Labs)
If you didn't take my earlier advice about Gnuplot, you're going to have to learn it for this. Serves you right. In fairness, it is very easy.
Craters of the Moon
The best R squared values you will ever see.
The Ramsauer-Townsend Effect
Easy to do, harder to understand. You'll be better of if you leave it til after you do the Quantum Physics module in Hilary term.
The Geiger Counter
Got very reasonable results for this one, I was fairly happy with myself. Bit sad really.
The Franck-Hertz Experiment
Another case of easy (ish) to do but hard to understand. Forgot to do the whole luminance bands bit in the lab, but ah well.
