Study with us
The BEC Center offers courses and thesis projects for the
Master Degree in Physics
of the University of Trento
(Laurea Magistrale in Fisica).
We propose projects for Master Theses in the following areas:
- Experiments with ultracold atoms
- Theory of ultracold atoms, quantum gases and fluids, superfluidity
- Topological phases of matter
- Quantum optics and theory of photonic systems
- Quantum simulations and quantum computing
All professors and researchers of the BEC Center can be Thesis advisors. In particular
- experiments: Gabriele Ferrari, Giacomo Lamporesi, Alessandro Zenesini
- theory: Iacopo Carusotto, Franco Dalfovo, Stefano Giorgini, Philipp Hauke, Chiara Menotti, Alessio Recati
If you want to work in our experimental laboratory for your thesis, this is the plan of study
that we suggest you:
FIRST SEMESTER
- Experimental Methods (Stefano Vitale)
- Quantum Mechanics, Fields and Symmetries (Winfried Leidemann)
- Atomic Physics (Gabriele Ferrari)
- Statistical Mechanics (Raffaello Potestio)
SECOND SEMESTER
- Experimental Physics (Mario Scotoni)
- Ultracold Atoms (Giacomo Lamporesi)
- Quantum Optics (Iacopo Carusotto)
- Quantum Gases, Superfluidity and Superconductivity (Stefano Giorgini)
- Quantum Computing (Philipp Hauke)
THIRD SEMESTER
- Laboratory of Advanced Electronics (Leonardo Ricci)
ADDITIONAL CHOICES (THIRD OR FOURTH SEMESTER)
- two more courses chosen from those in the table "Insegnamenti caratterizzanti a scelta vincolata" in the "Manifesto degli studi", belonging to FIS/03 or FIS/04: Solid State Physics I; Condensed Matter Theory; Physics of Disordered Systems; Nuclear and Subnuclear Physics; Quantum Theories of Multiparticle Systems; Astroparticle Physics; Fundamental Interactions.
- one more course at free choice
