Requirement: Some knowledge of particle physics

Contents:
The course will discuss particle and nuclear physics with muons, including:


  • Precsion measurements using muons: The muon lifetime
  • Tests of the weak interaction: Muon decay parameters
  • Searches for lepton flavour violation using muons
  • Muonic X-rays as a tool for studying nuclei


We will look at original research literature and many ongoing experiments and discuss

  • What is a good motivation for an experiment
  • What drives the design of an experiment
  • How do I interpret and evaluate results of an experiment

Recommended reading list:
Original literature will be made availble during the course

Digital teaching:
If necessary, the course will take place as a video conference. Details will be announced on the course website as soon as they become available.
