PHYS 30121 Introduction to nuclear and particle physics

Examples

There are 5 examples sheets that will be posted here, roughly one for each two weeks. Apart from the revision class in week 3, only four examples classes will cover this course (in weeks 5, 8, 10 and 12). There is more on each sheet than can be covered in a one-hour class, so it is a good idea to look at the examples before each class so that you know which problems you want to ask the tutors about.

If you have any questions or run into difficulties between classes, the Physics Help Service can provide help.

Solutions will be issued after the corresponding classes, or at the end of the semester.
