- Written Exam (Formulas (PDF, 822 KB))
- Date: 9 January 2018
- Time: 10.00-13.00
- Location: Y 16 G 05
- Co-examinators: Dr. Patrick Owen, Mr. Davide Lancierini
The lab course consists of setting up a small experiment (either "Angular Distribution" or "Positronium"), collecting data, analyzing the data and writing a short report.
The experiments will take place January 15-26, 2018, in rooms Y 11 G 48 (Angular Distribution) and Y 11 G 78 (Positronium).
You work in groups of two. You have received the schedule by email. Each group has two full days to set up the experiment and collect the data. Each group then has one week to do the analysis and write the report. For example, if you do the experiment on January 15/16, you should hand in the report by January 23.
To prepare, please consult the manuals:
In case of questions, please contact Olaf Steinkamp (Positronium) or Alex Kish (Angular Correlations).
