PhD position at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB)

Application till: 21.05.2021

The thorium-229 nucleus has a state which is at an unusually low excitation energy of approximately 8 eV. This allows laser spectroscopy methods to be applied to a nuclear transition for the first time and opens up the possibility for a novel, extremely precise optical “nuclear clock” as well as for testing fundamentals of physics as regards the strong interactions. Your work in Working Group 4.44 will focus on:
• Participating in developing and setting up a VUV laser system at a wavelength of 150 nm and with a beam line towards an ion trap
• VUV laser spectroscopy on trapped ions, resonant laser excitation, and laser spectroscopy of the thorium-229 nucleus
• Investigating the laser excitation of Th-229 in doped crystals produced by our cooperation partner at the TU Wien, Austria

We are offering a crash course on the document preparation system LaTeX, which is widely used in science, on Friday, the 6th October 2017 from 11:00 until 18:00 (at the latest) in HS AP. To work on and discuss questions and exercises (“learning by doing”!) left over from the first day as well as advanced topics like data processing, we can also meet on a second day if there is some demand (e. g. Monday, 2017-10-09).
The course is explicitly designed to teach you everything you need to know to write lab reports (mostly) painlessly. We will also talk about a program for processing and visualizing data (gnuplot) as an example.

Grade calculator and overviews of lecture pages & minor subjects

Website update

Hey everyone,
we have just extended our website with a few pages which are hopefully useful to you:
Our grade calculator can calculate the final grade for your bachelor’s degree – you just have to put in your results for the individual modules.
We have started a collection of websites for the different lectures/courses (the pages where the profs provide their material etc.). If you can’t find a lecture or have forgotten the link, just take a look there.
We have collected information on the minor subjects (Interdisciplinary Studies) in the bachelor’s and master’s programs because this was spread over many sources and thus hard to find.

WE WANT YOU… as tutors for the Introduction Week 2015

Dear students,
you hopefully have fond memories of your Introduction Week last semester or the one before that (or…) and had a lot of fun. For the Introduction Week 2015, we’re now offering you the opportunity to participate as a tutor and introduce your own ideas. The Introduction Week takes place in on 12.10.–15.10. and is supposed to enable the new students to have a good entrace to their studies and life in Münster.

With your help and you as a tutor, we will tackle the Introduction Week once more this year and offer the freshmen a big welcome. In contrast to last year, we’re not planning a meeting in preparation of the Introduction Week and will instead meet with all volunteers on Monday, the 12.10. at 11 o’clock at the Student Council office in order to go through the week and plan when you can support us. Above all, we need tutors for Monday (12.10.) and Wednesday (14.10.). But if you’d like to contribute more or would like to use the opportunity to get a full preview of the work in the Student Council, we’d be glad to have you all week as well.

If you want to join in or have questions, please contact us; this is possible in the Student Council office, in person, on Facebook or via email to fsphys-erstiwoche@uni-muenster.de. We’ll also share all further information with you through the mailing list fsphys-erstiwoche@uni-muenster.de then!
We’d like to thank you for your help and are looking forward to working with you and to a great Introduction Week 2015!

The Student Council’s LaTeX course 2015

Preparation for lab courses

The Physics Student Council would like to address all those who will have to face their first laboratory courses next semester with a special offer. This mostly applies to those who will start their third bachelor’s semester this October; in principle, everyone interested is invited, though!
We are offering a crash course on the document preparation system LaTeX, which is widely used in science, on in HS 2. To answer and solve any questions and exercises (“learning by doing”!) which are left after the first day, we will also meet on a second day (Monday, the 10th August).
The course is explicitly designed to teach you everything you need to know to write lab reports (mostly) painlessly. We will also talk about a program for processing and visualizing data (gnuplot) as an example.
There are no fees for participation, of course! If you’re interested in participating (or if you have questions), please write us a quick message.
