Spin+X inspires pupils during Physics Day at RPTU
This year's Physics Day at the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau (RPTU) in Kaiserslautern once again offered fascinating insights into the world of science. The Spin+X stand in particular attracted the attention of the more than 1,000 pupils from grades 8 to 13 who took part.
Spin+X is dedicated to researching the spin of electrons and its diverse applications in modern technology. At the stand, the young visitors were given exciting insights into this highly topical field of research. They learned how the spin of electrons plays a central role in the further development of magnetic storage devices and innovative materials, for example. The practical application possibilities, especially in the future of storage technologies and electronic devices, caused great amazement and enthusiasm.
For years, the Physics Day at RPTU has been an important meeting place to inspire young talents for science and technology. For many pupils, it was the perfect opportunity to make their first contacts with physics and to learn about the diverse career prospects in this discipline. The Spin+X stand played a central role in this by demonstrating in an inspiring way how basic research can influence our daily lives. With initiatives such as Spin+X, RPTU underlines its central role as a place of inspiration and a driver for future development.
