Bachelor theses

A bachelor thesis (physics or medical physics) in our group is normally based on experiments. The topic is often a detailed aspect of the interaction of intense laser pulses with matter. For example, a new device for diagnosing a special effect can be planned, set up, characterized, and tested, or existing tools are employed for investigating an unknown physical interaction phenomenon, maybe regarding novel applications in medicine. There are also topics around our modern high power laser, either for optimizing or for characterizing its special properties. Typically, the lab work takes about 3-5 weeks. The rest of the time is required for preparation, data evaluation, reading special literature and writing the thesis.

For preparation it is recommended that you take the module “Spezialisierung Laser-Plasma-Diagnostik” consisting of the lecture “laser plasma diagnostics” (German, 2 SWS, every winter term) and a literature project, finished by an oral exam.

Please ask Prof Pretzler for actual bachelor thesis topics.
