I have been teaching courses on experimental techniques in nuclear
and particle physics to master students in physics and in
engineering for many years. This book grew out of the lecture notes
I made for these students. The physics and engineering students
have rather different expectations of what such a course should be
like. I hope that I have nevertheless managed to write a book that
can satisfy the needs of these different target audiences. The
lectures themselves, of course, need to be adapted to the needs of
each group of students. An engineering student will not qu- tion a
statement like "the velocity of the electrons in atoms is ?1% of
the velocity of light", a physics student will. Regarding units, I
have written factors h and c explicitly in all equations throughout
the book. For physics students it would be preferable to use the
convention that is common in physics and omit these constants in
the equations, but that would probably be confusing for the
engineering students. Physics students tend to be more interested
in theoretical physics courses. However, physics is an experimental
science and physics students should und- stand how experiments
work, and be able to make experiments work.This is an open access
book.
