Voraussetzungen |
The block internships depend on the availability of the beam times at the synchrotron. Dates will be announced in good time. Die Blockpraktika hängen zeitlich von der Verfügbarkeit der Strahlzeiten am Synchrotron ab. Termine werden rechtzeitig bekannt gegeben. Registration in FlexNow is not possible and will be made via the secretariat of the Institute of X-ray Physics to the examination office. Eine Anmeldung in FlexNow ist nicht möglich und erfolgt über das Sekretariat des Instituts für Röntgenphysik an das Prüfungsamt. Good basic knowledge of physics (semesters 1-4) and good or very good knowledge of biophysics and x-ray optics Maximum number of students: 2/beam time; if there are more applicants than slots, participants will be selected according to their experience and knowledge Examination prerequisites: Active participation at an X-ray beam time, including preparation and post-processing Examination requirements: Description of the scientific project, including the theoretical background and the experimental challenges and approaches; description of the data analysis and the results; discussion within the scientific context. |
Lernorganisation |
Learning outcome, core skills: The goal of this course is to acquire the competence to perform experiments at modern synchrotron sources and free-electron-laser sources (large scale facilities) in a team; this includes the theoretical and experimental preparation of such beam times, as well as the experiment itself and the data analysis; Competences: after successfully finishing this course, students should have the theoretical basis as well as the experimental abilities for performing modern X-ray experiments and should have applied their knowledge to specific examples from biophysics, soft matter physics and materials physics. |
Sonstiges | Lab course during an x-ray beam time performed by the Institute for X-Ray Physics at a national or international source (in particular DESY, BESSY, XFEL, ESRF, SLS, NSLSII, SACLA, Diamond, Soleil, Elettra); students will already be involved in the preparation and will thus be well prepared for the experimental approach. At the x-ray source, they experience the technical/experimental as well as the theoretical part of the work; after the campaign, they learn modern methods of data analysis by direct interaction with the project leaders. |
