PHYS 2213 covers waves (including Fourier Transformations and diffractions), Special Relativity, waves as particles and waves mechanics including the Michelson Interferometer and Schrödinger's equation, quantum mechanics, potential wells, Bohr atoms, and other topics.
The class is typically only taken by physics majors. In summer 2021, the course used the textbook Modern Physics by Krane (3rd or 4th edition).
