Philosophy of Physics
Philosophie der Physik
Close reading of and reflection about selected texts from physicists (e.g. C.F: Weizsäcker, Wilczek, Susskind) on the philosophical problems and consequences of their work.
From its beginnings, physics was dealing with theories of space and time. The course will give an overview of these theories from Aristotle to Descartes, Leibniz, Newton and Einstein and also look at new developments that consider space and time as not fundamental to nature but as emerging in nature from something else in nature.
Physics II
Physik II
Introduction to theory of waves, electricity and magnetism. This is the continuation of Physics I which introduced the fundamentals of mechanics.
An introduction to the theoretical aspects and experimental tests of QCD, with emphasis on perturbative QCD and related experiments at colliders.
Theories, Experiments, Causality

This course critically evaluates topics and approaches from physics against a broader historical and philosophical/systematic background. Attention will be paid, amongst other things, to the role of experiments, to the concepts of matter and field, and to theory formation.
