Attività didattica:

Il gruppo contribuisce all’attività didattica della SNS con una serie molto articolata di corsi per studenti del corso ordinario, sia per quelli dei corsi di PhD di Fisica e Nanoscienze:

  • Elettrodinamica classica I,
  • Elettrodinamica classica II,
  • Termodinamica e fisica statistica,
  • Introductory Quantum Physics,
  • Meccanica Quantistica, Introduzione alla struttura della materia,
  • Quantum Information,
  • Quantum Technologies: systems and methods,
  • Condensed Matter Physics,
  • Ciclo di seminari - Condensed Matter Physics.

Seminari: 

Durante l’intero anno Accademico 2018 e’ stato attivato un ciclo informale di seminari interni a cadenza settimanale (Quo Vadis seminars) per dare spazio agli studenti del gruppo di presentare i propri lavori e relazionare su lavori di interesse comune apparsi in letteratura (journal club).

Pubblicazioni:

68 totali, di cui: 45 prodotte e pubblicate nell’anno solare 2018; 20 prodotte e sottomesse nel 2018 ed ufficialmente pubblicate nel 2019; 3 prodotte e sottomesse nel 2018 ma ancora attualmente in fase di referaggio.
