Holder(s) :  Thierry Bastin
Language :  French language
Course contents :  The course is intended to the study of the bases of the atomic and molecular physics. We teach
  • Atomic magnetism. The spin.
  • Radiofrequency spectroscopy : EPR and NMR
  • The lasers (principles + description of various lasers)
Course objective :  
  • To teach the bases of the atomic and molecular physics
  • To teach the fundamental laws governing the behaviour of the atomic constituents.
  • To teach some experimental techniques used in the determination of the atomic and molecular properties.
Prerequisites :  None
Workshops :  The practical classes (15h) deal with
  • L'amplification lock-in
  • Rubidium absorption laser spectroscopy (hyperfine structure)
  • NMR Spectroscopy (2 afternoons) - Molecular structure studies
Organization :  The course is given in the first and the second quadrimestre according a schedule distributed at the beginning of the year.
Written notes :  Notes are distributed at the beginning of the course.
Assessment :  Oral and written examination (oral for the theoretical part of the course, written for the labs).
