Details about this class
This course is centered around lab activities. You will be doing experiments utilizing our vacuum trainers which incorporate mechanical and turbo pumps and TC and ion gauges. Analysis will involve measurement and comparison to theory, presented in lab reports. Practice in operation of the vacuum equipment is also an important part of this course.
Larger system projects may require scheduling additional time in the lab towards the end of the term.
You can find examples of syllabi for the courses I teach at my PCC web directory page.
