Exprements & Projects
In the photosynthesis of plants, algae and cyanobacteria, energy-rich biomolecules and oxygen are produced from water and CO2. Light serves as the energy source. Here we use small experiments to show you which mechanisms photosynthetic organisms have developed in order to use the entire color spectrum of light.
Location: Niche at the 1st floor window between wings 1 and 2
If people are talking in a room, the window panes partially absorb the sound and thus resonate. The extremely small deflections of the pane can be measured using laser beams. This method can be used not only to make sound waves visible, but also to determine mechanical material properties.

This scientific demonstration illuminates the fascinating properties of light, particularly its composition, polarization and interaction with matter. Remarkably, this can be achieved using a common household substance - sugar water. What is polarization? Why does sugar water twist light in a preferred direction? Why depends this on the color of light?

We deal with the theory of kinetics of biological soft matter systems and resort to the topic of randomness for this purpose.
In addition to experiments on probability distributions, we offer interactive virtual reality experiments on random motion using the diffusion of molecules as an example.
