Course DirectorySNHU PHY345 has 1 direct prerequisite, with 11 courses in its complete prerequisite tree.

Undergraduate · 3 credits

Atomic physics is the branch of physics that studies the structure of the atom, atomic energy states, and atomic interactions with particles and fields. Topics include electronic energy levels, fine structure and hyperfine structure, the interaction of radiation with atoms through resonance, absorption, spontaneous and stimulated emission, and the how electric and magnetic fields affect atomic energy levels.
