Excursion to Greifswald 2016

From September 5-7, 2016, Prof. Dr. Uwe Czarnetzki (Experimental Physics V) and eleven students went on a field trip to the INP (Dr. Torsten Gerling) and the MPI (Prof. Robert Wolf) in Greifswald.
On Tuesday morning, there was a lecture by Dr. Ronny Brandenburg at the INP, in which he generally introduced the INP and its research directions. This was followed by a guided tour of the laboratories (including spectroscopy, coating, plasma medicine) with a discussion with PhD students and scientists at posters as a conclusion. Tuesday afternoon at the MPI Prof. Robert Wolf gave a lecture and introduced the MPI-IPP and its research directions, gave an introduction to controlled nuclear fusion and even a guided tour at Wendelstein (for the group the magnetic field was shut down in the meantime to allow such a tour!), a guided tour at the microwave heating, gyratrons and beamlines and a discussion with Prof. Wolf.
The evening ended with a dinner in the city center and a cozy evening at the bar of the youth hostel.
