This course offers an introduction to computer simulation methods for physics problems and their implementation on PCs and super computers. The covered topics include classical equations of motion, partial differential equations (wave equation, diffusion equation, Maxwell's equations), Monte Carlo simulations, percolation, phase transitions, and N-Body problems.

Introduction to computer simulation methods and their foundations for the physics and material behavior of simple and complex materials and in particular polymeric liquids. This lecture is devised for students which have attended the course 402-0809-00L Introduction to Computational Physics.

The course is addressed to students in experimental and theoretical condensed matter physics and provides a theoretical introduction to a variety of important concepts used in this field.

This course reviews how ideas and concepts from physics have helped understanding biological systems by discussing landmark papers in the field.

The course introduces the principles of subject-oriented didactics in physics: preparation of lectures, planing, boundary conditions, teaching methods, auxiliary materials, experiments, exercises, tests, use of different media

In Earth's core, motions of liquid iron act as a dynamo producing the geomagnetic field. This course explores the composition, structure and physical conditions in Earth's core and describes the geomagnetic field before focusing on the geodynamo mechanism. An interdisciplinary perspective is adopted involving electromagnetism and fluid dynamics but also seismology and mineral physics.

The focus of the course is on effective field theories (EFT) in the context of particle physics. EFT provide a framework to systematically disentangle effects due to different scales. This will be discussed both in general terms and with specific phenomenological applications in mind.

Application of mathematical methods to problems in the (geo)physical sciences. Through exercises, the students learn to apply new and previously acquired mathematical skills, deriving many of the key results themselves. The course focuses on Wavefield methods (Seismics and Georadar), and Potential field methods (Gravity and Magnetics), as well as on Basic reflection imaging.

This course sensitises doctoral students to ethical issues that may occur during their doctorate. After an introduction to ethics and good scientific practice, students are familiarised with resources that can assist them with ethical decision-making. Students get the chance to apply their knowledge in a context specific to research in physics.

In the context of an examination lesson conducted and graded at a high school, the candidates provide evidence of the subject-matter-based and didactic skills they have acquired in the course of their training.

The students give 2 examination lessons.

The Standard Model of particle physics is a monumental achievement of human ingenuity. While typically approached from the theoretical side, in this proseminar we will collect the experimental evidence upon which the Standard Model has been built.

The course's objectivs are: Learning several advenced methods in experimental physics, and critical reading of experimental papers.

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.

The program covers theoretical and experimental aspects of flavorphysics. Topics include the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix,particle anti-particle mixing and CP violation in B and K mesondecays.Effective field theories and their application to rare B mesondecays are presented. Experimental aspects at B factories andhadron colliders are discussed.
