Bachelor & Master theses

The Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum offers students the opportunity to do their theses (bachelor, master).

Master theses

Master Thesis in the area of laboratory AMOC setup The positron is a well-established probe to perform defect sensitive spectroscopy on all kind of materials. Typically, one can measure either the lifetime of the positron or the Doppler shift of the annihilation gamma quanta. Both methods give different insights into the concentration, distribution and size of lattice defects in the material. Download

Bachelors Student Coincident Positronium Imaging Positronium (Ps) is the bound state of an electron and its antiparticle, the positron. It can be emitted from the surface of a solid sample when bombarded with slow positrons. Due to its simplicity, Ps is used in many investigations of fundamental physics including QED and matter/antimatter symmetry. These applications require a large number of Ps atoms with a controllable kinetic energy. Achieving this remains an active field of research. Download
