Doctorate in Experimental Physics

The main objective of the 3-year doctoral program is the training of young researchers in Experimental Physics. The student is able to acquire a broader cultural background in Physics, specific skills in traditional and cutting-edge experimental techniques and develop a critical sense in data analysis and interpretation of scientific results. This is made possible by the doctoral student's active participation in international projects funded by the EU and/or Italian research institutes (INFN, CNR, MIUR, ASI). Specific R&D research projects offer the opportunity to gain practical experience in the design and implementation of innovative tools that require specific know-how in microelectronics, optoelectronics and data acquisition. The physics research groups of the Univ. of Siena are well integrated into large international research collaborations including: High Energy Physics (CDF, ​​CMS, TOTEM) with particle collider experiments (CERN, FNAL); Astroparticle Physics (CALET, MAGIC, CTA) with experiments in space (International Space Station) and observatories on the ground; Photonics (quantum optics) at the INFN national laboratory in Legnaro; Complex systems; Medical physics. This allows our doctoral students to access the experimental facilities of the main national and international laboratories, universities and research institutes through research phases abroad. Co-supervised doctoral theses are regulated by international agreements. Lessons and seminars are in English. of Siena are well integrated into large international research collaborations including: High Energy Physics (CDF, ​​CMS, TOTEM) with particle collider experiments (CERN, FNAL); Astroparticle Physics (CALET, MAGIC, CTA) with experiments in space (International Space Station) and observatories on the ground; Photonics (quantum optics) at the INFN national laboratory in Legnaro; Complex systems; Medical physics.
