Over the last few decades, computer hardware has become smaller and smaller, but their technology remains more or less the same. Slowly, this development is reaching its limits.Thus, we need new technologies that satisfy our growing hunger for even more powerful hardware.

Quantum physics could be a solution.

Together with the University of Cologne and the RWTH Aachen, Bonn researchers want to work on making this new technology usable. To achieve this, quantum bits or even qubits - the quantum counterpart to our previous bits - quantum communication channels that build networks and error correction methods have to be explored from the ground up. As part of the Excellence Initiative, the Bonn-Cologne Graduate School of Physics and Astronomy (BCGS) offers a doctoral program with an integrated honors program.

  https://webapps.itmc.tu-dortmund.de/webapps/prod/dev/promotion/#/home

Meeting Dates of the Doctoral Commission

All requests need to be submitted at least four business days prior the meeting of the doctoral commission in order to be considered. Usually the meetings are on Mondays, that means submission of the documents until Wednesday before the meeting.

2024                  Start: 15:00 hrs

Application as Doctoral Student (PhD)

The application to the doctoral program at the Faculty of Biochemical and Chemical Engineering has to be performed at the individual research groups .

Please send your application data to the head of the research group, who will serve as scientific supervisor during the doctoral procedure.

When having a commitment from the supervisor you are obligated to apply for admission from the faculty using following link:

Admission as Doctoral Student

Those aspiring doctoral candidate status need to submit an application including following documents:

• transcript of records bachelor of science (Zeugnis mit Gesamtkredits)
• final grade certificate bachelor of science (Urkunde)
• transcript of records master of science (Zeugnis mit Gesamtkredits)
• final grade certificate master of science (Urkunde)
• curriculum vitae

All documents have to be submitted at least four business days prior to the meeting of the doctoral commission in order to be considered. Since originals of the aforementioned records and certificates need to be presented as well, a personal contact is required.  An appointment is obligatory. Please use: promotionsausschuss.bci tu-dortmund de .

In accordance to the “Landeshochschulgesetz HG NRW 2014 §67(5)” and the “Promotionsordnung 2014 §5(1)” students working on their doctoral thesis are obligated to join the doctoral program by an enrollment with the faculty.

The doctoral candidate status is restricted to four years but it can be extended on request. The application for extention for the first two years has to be submitted using the following link . Afterwards the applications for extension have to be submitted by mail using the following ( form ).

Extension of the PhD status

The doctoral candidate status is restricted to four years and it can be extended twice up to six years using following link .

There might be an opportunity to extend this period further based on certain live situations (e.g. pregnancy). These requests have to be submitted by mail using the following ( form ).

Submission of the Doctoral Thesis

The contents of the doctoral thesis must be distributed within the scientific community in order to finish the doctoral program successfully (Promotionsordnung 2014, §18(3)). Please be aware that this might cause copyright issues with previous publications, such as journal articles. It’s therefore advised to check your own copyright situation prior to writing your thesis! A monographic doctoral thesis requires a final distribution by a commercial publisher (e.g. Shaker, Dr. Hut and Cuvillier) or an online publication by the University (Eldorado). A cumulative doctoral thesis does not require such a distribution, since the information is already available in the journal articles. The introduction and text body (Manteltext) of a cumulative thesis should therefore be limited to information mentioned in the publications (PromO 2014, §18(3) “…Veröffentlichung in ungekürzter Form…”). In this respect it is not recommended to include unaccepted journal articles in the thesis, due to the risk of subsequent changes.

Required documents

Upon finishing the thesis the doctoral candidate has to upload several documents. In order to be considered by the doctoral commission the documents have to be submitted at least four business days prior to the meeting. The printed version of the thesis can be sent as parcel or be handed in at the doctoral office. In this case an appointment is obligatory ( promotionsausschuss.bci tu-dortmund de ).

Template of the forms and the necessary information can be found in the electronic system when you look in the upload procedure.

• paper copies (6) of the doctoral thesis (references in ACS format,  template title page )
• PDF-file "submission declaration form" *
• PDF-file "proof of participation" in  structured doctoral program  signed by supervisor *
• PDF-file "summary in German" signed by supervisor (less than 300 words) *
• PDF-file "summary in English" signed by supervisor (less than 300 words) *
• PDF-file "separate title page"
• PDF-file "form regarding co-author contributions" signed by supervisor *
• PDF-file "list of own publications" signed by supervisor *
• PDF-file "up-to-date curriculum vitae" signed by the student *
• PDF-file "plagiarism check" signed by student and supervisor (first 5 pages) and upload! In case of unclear citations please upload the whole report with active links.
• PDF-file "doctoral thesis"

*unsigned versions of the marked pdf-documents have to be attached in the appendix of each printed thesis as well as in the electronic version of the thesis

Oral Examination

After complete submission of the documents to the doctoral office the doctoral commission reviews all documents and appoints an examination board. The doctoral commission is not obligated to follow the suggestions of the candidate. The doctoral commission requests the supervisor to schedule the oral examination with the candidate as well as the members of the examination board. Afterwards all participants of the examination are invited by the doctoral office and the reports are requested from the referees. The student has the opportunity to read the reviewer reports three to five business days prior to the examination in the doctoral office. Copies, records and personal notes are not allowed and an appointment is obligatory ( promotionsausschuss.bci tu-dortmund de ).

The head of the examination board informs the student about the grades right after the examination, a confirmation letter is sent from the doctoral office to the student afterwards.  

Due to the Corona situation the following procedure has been defined by the faculty of BCI for oral doctoral examinations:  

• Contrary to the “Promotionsordnung” it is possible to take the exam during the corona crisis in presence of the members of the examination board only.
• An appointed external member of the examination board (“externer Gutachter”) is obligated to participate in the examination. A conferencing service like (Zoom, Webex etc.) might be used to comply with this rule.
• The doctoral examination has to be open to the members of the faculty. This can be achieved by conferencing service as well. In order to control the access a registration in advance is recommended.
• The technical aspects related to the conferencing service are organized by the doctoral student. One further person joining the examination physically is advised.
• If there are technical issues and the external member of the examination board or the members of the faculty cannot join the procedure the examination will be canceled.
• The doctoral student has to apply (scanned letter with signature) for this kind of examination by the doctoral commission ([email protected]).

If you agree to this procedure, you have to send an informal letter, indicating that you wish to do your exam in accordance with these regulations when submitting your thesis!

Finalization

The student is obligated to implement the examination board's comments in the final version of the thesis within one year (date of oral examination). Furthermore the  title page  has to be changed and the administrative appendix (section "Submission of the Doctoral Thesis" items marked with *) has to be removed from the thesis.

There are multiple different modes for publication of the final thesis in the “Promotionsordnung §18(3)”, three of which are common:

• Monographic dissertations are usually published by an official publisher (e.g. Shaker, Dr. Hut and Cuvillier ). A confirmation letter of the publisher is required containing author, title, ISBN number and information about minimal circulation. 10 paper copies need to be provided to the doctoral office.  
• Another strategy to publish a monographic dissertation is the electronic publication by the library of the university . Therefore a PDF-File (type A) and 10 paper copies are required to be provided to the doctoral office. An additional  form  is needed.  
• For cumulative dissertations 10 paper copies are required containing the text body as well as the publications and have to be handed in at the doctoral office.  

For finalization, the required amount of 10 copies of the thesis as well as the below-mentioned documents have to be submitted at the doctoral office. The printed version of the thesis can be sent as parcel or be handed in at the doctoral office. In this case an appointment is obligatory ( promotionsausschuss.bci tu-dortmund de ).

Additionally the following document have to be uploaded using the following link .

• PDF-file "final title page"

The final version of the printed thesis is transferred to the members of the examination board by the doctoral office for cross checking.

After the approval of the members of your examination board you receive a mail asking for a finalization of your documents. You have to upload

• PDF-file "form for certificate data" signed by student and supervisor ( form )
• PDF-file "actual curriculum vitae" signed by student

 This is your last task before the certificate can be issued.

Afterwards the approval of the examination board 4 copies of the dissertation are submitted to the library by the doctoral office (not by the doctoral student). The library sends a confirmation to the doctoral office. The date of the library confirmation letter has to be filled-in in above-mentioned form by the doctoral office. Please leave it blank.

Now the certificate can be issued by the dean's office.

It usually takes three months and the certificate will be sent by registered mail from the dean’s office.

Facility for Rare Isotope Beams

At michigan state university, investigating the conditions for a new stellar process.

A scientific research team studied how the barium-139 nucleus captures  neutrons in the stellar environment in an experiment at  Argonne National Laboratory ’s (ANL)  CARIBU facility using FRIB’s Summing Nal (SuN) detector . The team’s goal was to lessen uncertainties related to lanthanum production. Lanthanum is a rare earth element sensitive to intermediate neutron capture process (i process) conditions. Uncovering the conditions of the i process allows scientists to determine its required neutron density and reveal potential sites where it might occur. The team recently published its findings in  Physical Review Letters   (“First Study of the 139Ba(𝑛,𝛾)140Ba Reaction to Constrain the Conditions for the Astrophysical i Process”).

Artemis Spyrou , professor of physics at FRIB and in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Michigan State University (MSU), and Dennis Mücher , professor of physics at the  University of Cologne in Germany, led the experiment. MSU is home to FRIB, the only accelerator-based U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC) user facility on a university campus. FRIB is operated by MSU to support the mission of the DOE-SC Office of Nuclear Physics as one of 28 DOE-SC user facilities.

Combining global collaboration and world-class educational experiences

The experiment was a collaborative effort involving more than 30 scientists and students from around the world. Participating institutions included the  University of Victoria in Canada, the  University of Oslo in Norway, and the  University of Jyväskyla in Finland. 

“The collaboration is essential because everyone comes from different backgrounds with different areas of expertise,” Spyrou said. “Together, we’re much stronger. It’s really an intellectual sharing of that knowledge and bringing new ideas to the experiment.”

The international collaboration also included five FRIB graduate and two FRIB undergraduate students. FRIB is an educational resource for the next generation of science and technical talent. Students enrolled in nuclear physics at MSU can work with scientific researchers from around the world to conduct groundbreaking research in accelerator science, cryogenic engineering, and astrophysics. 

“Our students contribute to every aspect of the experiment, from transporting the instrumentation to unpacking and setting it up, then testing and calibrating it to make sure everything works,” Spyrou said. “Then, we all work together to identify what’s in the beam. Is it reasonable? Do we accept it? Once everything is set up and ready, we all take shifts.”

Measuring the i process 

Producing some of the heaviest elements found on Earth, like platinum and gold, requires stellar environments rich in neutrons. Inside stars, neutrons combine with an atomic nucleus to create a heavier nucleus. These nuclear reactions, called neutron capture processes, are what create these heavy elements. Two neutron capture processes are known to occur in stars: the rapid neutron capture process ( r process) and the slow neutron capture process ( s process). Yet, neither process can explain some astronomic observations, such as unusual abundance patterns found on very old stars. A new stellar process—the i process—may help. The i process represents neutron densities that fall between those of the r and s processes.

“Through this reaction we are constraining, we discovered that compared to what theory predicted, the amount of lanthanum is actually less,” said Spyrou. 

Spyrou said that combining lanthanum with other elements, like barium and europium, helps provide a signature of the i process. 

“It’s a new process, and we don’t know the conditions where the i process is happening. It’s all theoretical, so unless we constrain the nuclear physics, we will never find out,” Spyrou said. “This was the first strong constraint from the nuclear physics point of view that validates that yes, the i process should be making these elements under these conditions.”

Neutron capture processes are difficult to measure directly, Spyrou said. Indirect techniques, like the beta-Oslo and shape methods, help constrain neutron capture reaction rates in exotic  nuclei . These two methods formed the basis of the barium-139 nucleus experiment.

To measure the data, beams provided by ANL’s CARIBU facility produced a high-intensity beam and delivered it to the center of the SuN detector, a device that measures gamma rays emitted from decaying  isotope beams. This tool was pivotal in producing strong data constraints during the study.

“I developed SuN with my group at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, the predecessor to FRIB,” Spyrou said. “It’s a very efficient and large detector. Basically, every gamma ray that comes out, we can detect. This is an advantage compared to other detectors, which are smaller.”

The first i process constraint paves the way for more research

Studying the barium-139 neutron capture was only the first step in discovering the conditions of the i  process. Mücher is starting a new program at the University of Cologne that aims to measure some significant i  process reactions directly. Spyrou said that she and her FRIB team plan to continue studying the i process through different reactions that can help constrain the production of different elements or neutron densities. They recently conducted an experiment at ANL to study the neodymium-151 neutron capture. This neutron capture is the dominant reaction for europium production.

This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation.

Michigan State University operates the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) as a user facility for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC), supporting the mission of the DOE-SC Office of Nuclear Physics. Hosting what is designed to be the most powerful heavy-ion accelerator, FRIB enables scientists to make discoveries about the properties of rare isotopes in order to better understand the physics of nuclei, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental interactions, and applications for society, including in medicine, homeland security, and industry.

The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science is the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States and is working to address some of today’s most pressing challenges. For more information, visit  energy.gov/science .
