BA-/MA-Projects

Thank you very much for your interest in joining our research group! We offer a wide range of exciting topics for Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD theses – from hadron spectroscopy to the development of new target technologies. Programming skills are not a prerequisite – all the necessary tools and skills will be taught as part of the project. Those who already have prior knowledge are, of course, welcome to apply it directly.
Below is an initial overview of possible topics for theses. If you are interested, the specific research question will be tailored to your individual needs and aligned with our current research. It is important to us that all theses address cutting-edge topics.

The focus of our target-related activities includes the following work:

• Design and development of new target components (analysis tools, remote control, etc.) and further development of existing hardware and software
• Analysis and optimisation of target parameters and jet properties
• Investigation of the influence of nozzle geometry on beam parameters
• Vacuum studies based on Monte Carlo simulations
• Target operation with different gases

The BESIII analyses focus on the following topics:

• Search for exotic hadrons, in particular the lightest glueball
• Measurement of ηc and ψ(2S) properties
• Development of analytical methods in hadron spectroscopy
