Implementation of experiments in condensed matter physics. Planning, design, realisation, evaluation, and interpretation of the experiments.

This lecture introduces the use of group theory to solve problems of quantum mechanics, condensed matter physics and particle physics. Symmetry is at the roots of quantum mechanics: this lecture is also a tutorial for students that would like to understand the practical side of the (often difficult) mathematical exposition of regular courses on quantum mechanics.

This lecture is given in german, but all relevant informations (including the manuscript) are in english. This lecture introduces group theoretical concepts and methods with the aim of showing how to use them for solving problems in atomic, molecular and solid state physics.

This course tackles the fundamental question of why only a few materials exhibit magnetism in Nature. The origin of atomic magnetic moments and the key mechanisms that govern their interactions are justified starting from fundamental principles. In addition, the influence of thermal fluctuations on magnetic ordering is discussed as well as the formalism to describe magnetic resonance phenomena.

This lecture will treat key subjects related to phase transitions and critical phenomena, in particular in low dimensional systems, where the Landau theory and the renormalization group must be amended to include topological aspects.

Part A:Introduction to mechanics: kinematics, Newton's Laws, energy and momentum, rotation of solid bodies, movement in a central field, oscillations and waves.Part B: electrostatics, electric current, simple circuits, magnetic field, magnetic induction, Maxwell's equations, elements of optics.

This course gives a first introduction to Physics. During the Winter term (Physics I) emphasis is given to classical mechanics, up to Newtons' theory of gravitation, with a short introduction to Special Relativity. During the Summer term (Physics II) topics such as oscillations, waves and Thermodynamics are discussed.
