402-0719-MSL | Particle Physics at PSI (Paul Scherrer Institute) | W | 8 credits | 15P | A. Soter, A. S. Antognini | |
Abstract | During semester breaks in Summer 6-12 students stay for 3 weeks at PSI and participate in a hands-on course on experimental particle physics. A small real experiment is performed in common, including apparatus design, construction, running and data analysis. The course includes some lectures, but the focus lies on the practical aspects of experimenting. | |||||
Learning objective | Students learn all the different steps it takes to perform a complete particle physics experiment in a small team. They acquire skills to do this themselves in the team, including design, construction, data taking and data analysis. | |||||
402-0210-MSL | Proseminar Theoretical Physics Limited number of participants. | W | 8 credits | 4S | Supervisors | |
Abstract | A guided self-study of original papers and of advanced textbooks in theoretical physics. Within the general topic, determined each semester, participants give a presentation on a particular subject and deliver a written report. | |||||
Learning objective | The goals of the proseminar are four-fold: i) to expand your knowledge of theoretical physics; ii) to learn how to give a professional presentation; iii) to learn how to write a scientific report; and (iv) to take part in scientific discussions. | |||||
402-0217-MSL | Semester Project in Theoretical Physics | W | 8 credits | 15A | Supervisors | |
Abstract | This course unit is an alternative if no suitable "Proseminar Theoretical Physics" is available of if the proseminar is already overbooked. | |||||
Learning objective | The goals of the proseminar are four-fold: i) to expand your knowledge of theoretical physics; ii) to learn how to give a professional presentation; iii) to learn how to write a scientific report; and (iv) to take part in scientific discussions. | |||||
402-0215-MSL | Experimental Semester Project in Physics | W | 8 credits | 15A | Supervisors | |
Abstract | The aim of the project is to give the student experience in working in a research environment, carrying out physics experiments, analysing and interpreting the resulting data. | |||||
