PHY3302 Advanced Topics in Physics (FOSCI)

Units 1.0 (Physics) Band 6

Pre-requisite: PHY2201 or (PHY2205 and MAT1102)

Recommended prior study: CSC2409

Synopsis

The topics to be covered are Cloud Physics and solar UV Physics. Each topic builds on some of the material in previous courses and provides examples of in-depth applications. Cloud Physics will discuss cloud monitoring and influence of clouds on UV. The solar UV radiation section will include topics on solar UV, spectroradiometry, broad band meters and UV dosimetry. A series of practical exercises for a topic are undertaken to demonstrate the principles involved.
