Particle and Astroparticle Physics
Teilchen- und Astroteilchenphysik
6 LPunregelmäßigEN
Voraussetzungen
Empfohlen, im Wortlaut
Knowledge of experimental physics, e.g. modules • 11865: Allgemeine Physik I (Mechanik, Thermodynamik) • 11866: Allgemeine Physik II (Elektrizität und Magnetismus) • 11867: Allgemeine Physik III (Optik, Atome und Moleküle) • 11868: Allgemeine Physik IV (Festkörperphysik), as well as basics in quantum mechanics, e.g. module • 11874: Theoretische Physik G1 (Mechanik, Quantenmechanik)
Inhalte
The lectures cover: • structure of nuclei, radioactivity, nuclear fission and fusion, energy production in stars • modern concepts of particle and astroparticle physics • fundamental particles and fields, parity and CP violation • cosmic rays, dark matter and the development of the universe • experimenal methods, detector technologies, key experiments A visit of DESY Hamburg (Research Center of Helmholtz Association) is planned.
Lernziele
After successfully completing the module students will have acquired a profound knowledge about modern concepts of electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions in sub-nuclear, particle and astroparticle physics and modern experimental techniques used in the field. They know about the cognitive methods used in fundamental research, and their application in example-experiments. Creativity, initiative and teamwork, prerequisites for successful research work, have been developed.
