Public Relations
The Department of Physics has developed a comprehensive program to let the interested public participate in its research and teaching activities. The various events are specifically adapted to the needs of students, teachers and other interested parties. Especially the offers for prospective students give realistic insights into the life at the Department of Physics and the different research areas.
Treffpunkt Quantenmechanik
The Department of Physics would like to intensify contacts with schools and interest students in scientific topics.
Masterclasses
Each year, about 10,000 students from more than 37 countries visit nearby universities and research institutes to unravel the mysteries of particle physics for a day.
University-wide actions / programs
In addition, the TU Dortmund offers various event formats for prospective students. These range from one-day visits to TU Dortmund University as part of the Dortmunder Hochschultage to trial studies at the SchnupperUni.



![3D visualisation of human neuronal tissue reconstructed by multi-scale X-ray phase contrast tomography. Neuronal cell nuclei are shown in yellow for the granule neurons in the dentate gyrus region of the hippocampus. Blood vessels are shown in red. By changing the X-ray optical magnification in the multi-scale recordings, one can zoom into regions-of-interest (red ovals). In these scans the resolution is high enough to resolve sub-structures of the nucleus, associated with different DNA packing regimes.
