COURSE GOALS:
- acquire knowledge and understanding of the physics of flavour
- acquire the field-theory methods for a study of the CP violation
- acquire an insight in beyond the Standard Model physics
LEARNING OUTCOMES AT THE LEVEL OF THE PROGRAMME:
1. KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
1.1 formulate and interpret the basic laws of physics including mechanics, electromagnetism and thermodynamics
1.2 demonstrate profound knowledge of advanced methods of theoretical physics which include classical mechanics, classical electrodynamics, statistical physics and quantum physics
2. APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
2.1 develop a way of thinking that allows the student to set the model or to recognize and use the existing models in the search for solutions to specific physical and analog problems
2.2 recognize analogies in the situations that are physically different, as well as in the situations analogous to the physical ones, as well as applying known solutions when solving new problems
4. COMMUNICATION SKILLS
4.3 use English as the language of communication in the profession, the use of literature, and writing scientific papers and articles
5. LEARNING SKILLS
5.1 consult professional literature independently as well as other relevant sources of information, which implies a good knowledge of English as a language of professional communication
5.2 follow the development of new knowledge in the field of physics independently and give his/her own professional opinion on its scope and possible applications
5.3 engage in scientific work and research within the framework of postgraduate doctoral studies
LEARNING OUTCOMES SPECIFIC FOR THE COURSE:
Upon passing the course on Flavor Physics and CP Violation, the student will be able to:
* demonstrate a knowledge of the Flavour sector of the Standard Model;
* demonstrate a knowledge of CPV mechanisms within and beyond the Standard Model;
* demonstrate a knowledge of CPV in neutral meson mixing;
* demonstrate a knowledge of CPV in rare particle decays;
