摘要:
Experiments for introducing data analysis techniques in the undergraduate nuclear laboratory are presented. In particular, data from gamma spectroscopy using NaI detectors are ideal for teaching curve fitting and chi‐square analysis. An experiment well suited for error analysis is the measurement of the half‐life of a radioisotope, since the uncertainties are primarily statistical and can be determined by a well‐defined procedure. All software used in our experiments was written by students as special projects.
