Profile
The course is oriented towards nuclear physics and elementary particle physics, i.e. disciplines presenting fundamental facts about the structure of matter and principal interactions of the microworld. However, many findings and methods have surpassed the realm of physics and found their place in many fields of human activities. The degree course is based mainly on the common core of mathematics and physics.
The degree course is based on theoretical courses dealing with subatomic physics and quantum mechanics, building on a series of lectures on mechanics, electricity and magnetism, waves and optics, atomic physics, theoretical physics, thermodynamics, and statistical physics. The courses of theoretical character are supplemented with courses characterising the specialization, namely courses on detectors and principles of detection, physical measurements, and experimental physics. An important part of the degree course is mastering experimental physics, experimental techniques and physics practicals. Mathematics courses include calculus, linear algebra, numerical methods, equations of mathematical physics, and basics of programming.
The course lays stress on modern methods of obtaining experimental data and on their computational processing, on methods of machine learning, physical interpretation of experimental results, formulation of theoretical models, as well as possible applications in practice of the facts obtained. Also, part of the course is laboratory training. Preference is given to one-to-one tutorials with the supervisor. Students are also invited to join research teams and are given guidance on teamwork. Therefore, they have a chance to study also at such collaborating institutions as the Czech Academy of Sciences, CERN Geneva, the Brookhaven National Laboratory, and GSI Darmstadt.
