Particle Physics II (Neutrinos, Astroparticle Physics)

Course Information

All the details on place, time and ECTS credit points are available on the KSL.

Course Description

The course consists of two parts: the first focuses on precision physics using neutrons, and the second on neutrino physics.

The main topics of the course include:

  • Introduction to neutron physics, neutron sources, and neutron optics
  • Neutron scattering and interferometry
  • Particle physics experiments with neutrons, including ultracold neutrons, neutron (EDM), neutron lifetime and decay, electric charge, and gravity
  • Neutrino oscillations and neutrino mass
  • Neutrinoless double-beta decay
