Theses
You are interested in writing a thesis in the field of experimental particle physics?
We offer topics for bachelor and master theses on current research questions focussing on the reconstruction of hadronic signals in the ATLAS detector. An overview of the topics currently available in our junior research group can be found in moodle. Below you can find an overview of the theses written so far in our group on this topic.
If you are interested in one of the currently available topics, or if you would like to discuss other possiblities or topics in the field of particle physics, please feel free to contact us. We are looking forward to a chat with you.
