During the school, students will be asked to make use of web resources and books to independently gather information and prepare for discussion related to 3 different topics: Neutrinos, Superconductivity, and Fusion Power. For this, students will be divided into 3 competing teams of 12 (Groups 1, 2, 3; see table below). Each team should separately discuss these topics and then split into 3 groups of 4 (*), each of which will be tasked to pursue further a different one of these topics and prepare a 20-minute chalk-board presentation. On Thursday afternoon, each team will be randomly assigned one of these topics and asked to have their appropriate sub-group give their presentation. Following each such presentation, the other two teams will then be asked to provide additional pieces of information on the topic that may have been left out, with points awarded for each new piece according to the strength of the contribution. The discussion of each of the topics will be led by an expert in the field. The teams will get points both for their presentations and for additional contributions. Each member of the winning team of 12 will receive a prize. Students are welcome (and encouraged) to start researching these topics before coming to Oxford.

(*) Note: We have provided a tentative partition --- Study Groups Alpha, Beta, Gamma; see table below --- but this is merely advisory. The students are free to change this distribution according to their preferences. However, they should keep in mind two factors: there may be logistical difficulties for joint study if members of the same study group live in different colleges; the time for joint study would be maximised if members of the same group have tutorials at the same time on Thursday (see schedule below).
