Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Matter-wave research is an established science, going back to the early days of Louis de Broglie in 1923. Modern matter-wave research exploits the quantum nature of electrons, neutrons, atoms, molecules, atomic and molecular clusters, antimatter or nanoparticles.
Quantum delocalization challenges our understanding of reality and measurement but it also opens new avenues for precision measurements of fundamental constants, atomic and molecular properties. It has become leading in tests of inertial sensing, probing general relativity theory and physics beyond the standard model. Electron and neutron matter-waves are essential in modern surface and bulk imaging in the materials and life sciences. Molecular matter-wave explore new avenues in physical chemistry.Antimatter and nanoparticles are being discussed as probes of gravity at the interface to quantum science.
Students will acquire the knowledge and skills to discuss matter-wave physics and state-of-the-art matter-wave experiments.
2 hours of lecture per week will introduce new content. 1 hour of exercises shall help students dive deeper into the topic with calculations, simulations, paper presentations.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

- The exercises are ungraded to allow for free feedback and training.
- Presence in >75% of the exercises is mandatory.
- The final grade is based on the written test (90 min) at the end of the course. You are allowed to bring your brain, a pen and a simple pocket calculator without AI, internet and equation storage.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

See above and
You need to pass the test with >50% of all possible points. The scale above is linear.

Prüfungsstoff

All lecture and exercise material

Literatur

Lecture slides will be provided, complementing the black board presentation.
We will refer to the relevant literature as we go along.
