| Participants |
Students... • learn about the complexity and diversity of nonequilibrium phenomena of systems composed of many particles and degrees of freedom • will understand the differences between physics at thermodynamic equilibrium and out of equilibrium • learn systems maintained out of equilibrium, including active matter systems that are state-of-the-art research • obtain solid expertise in the theoretical techniques required to treat phenomena far from equilibrium, and are able to apply these methods to concrete problems, • and will become competent to acquaint themselves with modern scientific questions. Integrated acquirement of soft skills: • autonomous working with scientific literature in English, • improving written and spoken English during lectures and exercises, • interdisciplinary thinking, and working |
| Pre-requisites | It is assumed that the students are familiar with the contents of a four- semester course in theoretical physics, including Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics. |
