BACK TO THE FUTURE OF PHYSICS one small step towards the final frontiers &nbsp; This is a scientific project aiming at introducing some concepts of Modern Physics. The branches of Modern Physics, such as Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, Atomic Physics, Nanotechnology etc., are based on Quantum Mechanics, Special and General Relativity; topics often too difficult to grasp for students in secondary education. Nonetheless, the frontier in the physics research of today is in these fields. The goal of this project is therefore to stimulate our students’ curiosity for Modern Physics, to prepare them for future choices in their professional careers, or to just spark an everyday interest for current developments of the physics frontiers. In order to achieve this, the students will get some acquaintance with the topics of Modern Physics, working on a popular science level.
