Physics Experiments Using PCs A Guide for Instructors and Students / edited by H.M. Staudenmaier.

Physics practical classes form an important part of many scientific and technical courses in higher education. In addition to the older standard experiments, such practicals now generally include a few computer-controlled experiments developed in association with the research groups active in the pa...
