Target Group: Students in the Master course “Physics”. Basic knowledge in solid state physics and quantum mechanics is required on a Bachelor-degree level. A bief review of the basics of magnetism will be given in the lecture. The lecture and accompanying practise seminar constitute the module “Modern Methods in Experimental Physics A”.
Credit points: 5 ECTS points
Lecture: Lectures comprise of a weekly video lecture, which is uploaded Monday evening at latest and is accompanied by a short online test with comprehensive questions and 1-2 exercises, which will be discussed in the practise seminar (see below). The purpose of the online test is (i) students can easily check their learning progress by themselves and (ii) the lecturer will see if more explanations or help is needed and can react accordingly. Online tests do not enter the grade in any form.
