Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The exercises shall consolidate the understanding of the material presented in the lecture. We will explore the theoretical foundations, work out conceptual models and evaluate applications of matter-wave interferometry with neutrons, electrons, atoms and molecules.

Assessment and permitted materials

Monthly written tests à 60 min.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Pass: At least 2 out of 3 tests passed.
Pass grade is 50% of all possible points.
Linear scale of grades above the pass grade.

Examination topics

Whole material of the lecture + the associated exercises
