Study-related information

  • Parts of the final state examination and its content
    Final state examination has three parts:
    1) Master's thesis defence,
    2) Theoretical physics,
    3) Particle physics.

    Theoretical physics part verifies the knowledge of the following fundamental topics of Physics study programme :
    Theory of relativity, Quantum mechanics, Statistical physics, Fundamentals of Quantum theory, Fundamentals of Material structure and Mathematical analysis in the extent of corresponding course syllabus of fundamental studies profile, common to all specialisms.

    Particle physics part verifies the knowledge typical for this specialization, e.g., the knowledge of particle physics parts which form the content of following fundamental studies profile courses: Introduction to particle physics I, Introduction to particle physics II, Quantum field theory II and Standard model of electroweak interactions.

    Parts of State Rigours Exams (SRE) and their content
    SRE has two parts:
    1) Rigours thesis defence,
    2)Particle physics

    Particle physics part verifies the knowledge of particle physics parts, which form the contents of following fundamental master study profile courses: Introduction to particle physics I, Introduction to particle physics II, Quantum field theory II and Standard model of electroweak interactions, and the knowledge of advanced particle physics parts associated with the rigour thesis topic.
  • Suggestion of theses topics and the topics of defended theses
    Diploma thesis proposals:
    - Electromagnetic decays of resonance c1(770) as a source of small mass dileptons
    - Resonance parameters c1(1900) determination from data about different particle and nuclear process,
    - Using electron-pozitron anihilation data to model thermal dileptons production from hadron gas.

    Defended diploma thesis
    (topics are part of relativistic astrophysics and defended in actual master study programme Physics, followed by the proposed study programme Theoretical physics ):
    - Decay c10 ୠ c0+ c0 - C00 c0 0 with inclusion of intermedial a1 c0 mezone,
    - Solitones in DNA,
    - Analysis of correlated cosmic radiation showers,
    -Annihilation qqg contribution to dilepton production from quark-gluon plasma .

    Rigour thesis topics propposal:
    - The role of many-particle process in photon production in thermalized hadron gas,
    - LHC experimental limits for vector rezonances of strong interaction extension of Standard model.
