Synopsis:

Experimental project is a two-semestral course that represents the final degree of practical education of students in the experimental nuclear physics. Project has a form of a work on designated project and the topic of the project is chosen such that it is complementary to the theoretical knowledge in experimental nuclear physics. Students are encouraged to form work-groups and each of them solves a particular task on this project. Finally, students attempt to propose and build and perform the experiment and then process the results to scientific output.

The goal of the first semester is to familiarize with the experiment, make theoretical calculations, and realize simulations for proposing particular properties of the apparatus. A document summarizing the proposal of the apparatus is a final result of this course.
