Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions

Content

Historisch wurde die starke Wechselwirkung zunächst zwischen den Kernbausteinen und Kernen erforscht, und später entdeckt, dass alle stark wechselwirkenden Teilchen - Hadronen - eine partonische Unterstruktur aufweisen.

Heutzutage ist diese Unterstruktur mit dem theoretischen Konzept der Quanten-Chromodynamik (QCD) identifiziert. Dessen Haupteigenschaften - Quark-Einschluss (oder Confinement) und asymptotische Freiheit - führen zu einer Theorie mit der Schwierigkeit, dass die physikalischen Observablen nicht direkt ausgerechnet werden können. Stattdessen nähert man sich dem Fachgebiet am besten in gemeinsamer Betrachtung der experimentellen Beobachtungen und der Interpretation im Quark-Gluon-Bild. Die Vorlesung beleuchtet aktuelle Forschung aus dem Fachgebiet.
