Life has emerged on our planet from physical principles such as molecular self-organization, thermodynamics, stochastics and iterative refinement. This course will introduce the physical methods to study life and will discuss the quantitative and physical ...
This course provides a broad introduction into materials research using synchrotron X-rays, neutrons and myons. After an introduction into large scale facilities, we will dive into the different methods, including application examples from various fields o ...
Students will study fundamental principles of light-matter interaction and apply classical and quantum mechanical models for quantitative estimates. Optical phenomena in glasses, organic/inorganic semiconductors, liquid crystals, quantum dots as well as de ...
Ce cours est une introduction à la physique stellaire. On y expose les notions indispensables à la compréhension du fonctionnement d'une étoile et à la construction de modèles de structure interne et d'évolution stellaires. On donne aussi des clés d'interp ...
The course will cover fundamental concepts and recent developments in the field of ultrafast spectroscopy and introduce the basic theory to understand ultrafast (10-16 - 10-9 s) phenomena in chemistry, biology and condensed matter physics. ...
