Marlene Märkl, Lisa Häberle and Felix Dick have taken pictures with a large format camera in the interior of the neutron source Heinz Maier-Leibnitz. It was part of their architecture curriculum at the Chair for Fine Arts of TUM. "We wanted to show the technics in the interior of the neutron source to the public", explains Marlene Märkl, architecture student at TUM. They have taken several pictures of the instruments inside FRM II. One of them, showing an accelerator for positrons at the instrument NEPOMUC, can be looked at on a billboard in the Theresienstraße, at the bridge from TUM crossing the street, until 30 July.
Another project of TUM architecture students is exhibited in the gallery "Karin Sachs" in Augustenstraße 48, until Thursday, 26 July: The wooden and walkable model of the atomic egg, with noises and explanations from scientists from the interior of the FRM and FRM II.
Both projects are part of an exhibition called "Orbitum" for the celebration of the 150th birthday of the TUM. Finnissage will be Thursday, 26 July, from 17 until 18h.
