Title: "Shaken, not stirred! - James Bond in the sights of physics"
Abstract: In the lecture, facts about James Bond, probably the most famous secret agent in the world, will be presented and scenes from the films will be analyzed physically using short video clips. At the end of the lecture, it will be explained with a wink why the top agent always takes his vodka martini shaken and never stirred. Even a preview of the next Bond film is ventured.
Afterwards there is an end-of-semester barbecue.

Solid lines are predictions of the kp theory with no free parameters. Splitting of the conduction (e1,2) and valence (h1) band is due to the quantum confinement. [J.
