Course Contents
This semester's seminar on experimental nuclear structure and astrophysics will address topics related to the planned Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at the GSI Helmholtz-Center for Heavy-Ion Research. These include accelerator developments, test and prototype experiments, which have already been performed at the existing GSI facility, as well as planned future experimental facilities.

An abstract on all available topics will be provided here before the lecture period starts. The topic assignment will take place in the first lecture week.

Literature
Original literature and technical documentation will be provided by the advisors.

Preconditions
B.Sc. in physics with undergraduate-level nuclear physics course

Further Grading Information
In the week before the lecture period starts, the abstracts of all topics will be provided here, such that you can send us a list of prefered topics which you would be interested in presenting. The topic and advisor assignment will take place during the first seminar time slot, where also a short introduction to scientific presentation techniques will be given.

Official Course Description
In this experimental-physics seminar, you will work independently on an assigned topic related to experiments at the FAIR facility and to the associated detector and accelerator developments. You will prepare a 40 minute presentation with the help of an advisor and present it to the other seminar participants. A discussion on the presented topics will follow the talk, and feedback on the presentation technique will be provided as well.
