Institutskolloquium
  • Date: Jul 25, 2025
  • Time: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Prof. Allen Caldwell
  • The scientific work carried out by Prof. Allen Caldwell currently includes the development of novel particle accelerator technology based on plasma wakefields, the study of the quarks and gluons and their interactions, the fundamental properties of neutrinos and, more recently, the search for a new candidate for Dark Matter - axions. In addition, he has a great interest in probability and statistics, and lectures on data analysis techniques and Monte Carlo methods at the Technical University of Munich. The plasma based accelerator experiment is explained in the video How can plasma and proton beams be used in building next generation particle accelerators? Prof. Caldwell was born in Verdun/France in 1959 and has the double citizenship of the USA and France. He studied physics at Rice University in Texas, then moved to the University of Wisconsin where he earned his doctorate. He then spent 15 years at Columbia University, where he eventually became professor. In 1997, he became head of the ZEUS experiment at the HERA accelerator at DESY in Hamburg. In 1999, he was made director of the Nevis Laboratory at Columbia University in New York; since 2002 he has been a Member of the Board of Directors of the Max Planck Institute for Physics. He currently heads the AWAKE experiment at CERN .

Farewell Colloquium Uli Stroth

Institutskolloquium

Title coming soon

Institutskolloquium
  • Date: Jul 11, 2025
  • Time: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM (Local Time Germany)
  • Speaker: Prof. Peter Schwabe
  • Peter Schwabe is a scientific director at MPI-SP and also a professor at the Institute for Computing and Information Sciences at Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. His research is in the area of cryptography, specifically the design and secure implementation of cryptographic primitives. In recent years he is mainly working on post-quantum cryptography, i.e., cryptographic primitives that run on standard hardware, but remain secure even against attackers equipped with a large universal quantum computer. He was awarded an ERC Starting Grant for this work on engineering post-quantum cryptography. Peter is interested in high-assurance cryptography, an area that brings together techniques and tools from formal methods and research into cryptographic software to improve the quality of cryptographic systems we use every day to protect our digital assets.

Farewell Colloquium Arne Kallenbach

Institutskolloquium
Normalerweise ist es nur wenigen Fachleuten zugänglich: das Plasmagefäß der Fusionsforschungsanlage ASDEX Upgrade im Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik (IPP) in Garching bei München. Eine Sonderführung anlässlich des „Wissenschaftsjahres 2025 – Zukunftsenergie“ bringt Schulklassen jetzt mitten hinein in das Herz der Anlage. ASDEX Upgrade auch von innen erleben zu können – eine Kooperation des IPP mit dem Zentrum für Virtuelle Realität und Visualisierung am Leibniz-Rechenzentrum der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (LRZ) macht das nun möglich.

Online-Vortrag "Kernfusion - Auf der Zielgeraden zum Reaktor? - Prof. Dr. Josefine Proll

Die Verschmelzung von leichten Atomkernen, bekannt als Kernfusion, ist die Energiequelle der Sonne und ein langgehegter Traum für die Energiegewinnung auf der Erde. Nach über 70 Jahren intensiver Forschung stehen wir nun möglicherweise vor einer Zeitenwende: Zahlreiche Start-ups versprechen, in den kommenden Jahren Fusionsreaktoren ans Netz zu bringen. Doch haben wir es wirklich geschafft? Prof. Josefine Proll beleuchtet zunächst die Grundlagen der Kernfusion und untersucht die verschiedenen Konzepte, die darauf abzielen, die Energie der Sonne auf die Erde zu holen. Ein besonderer Fokus liegt auf dem modernsten Fusions-Experiment weltweit: dem Wendelstein 7-X- Stellarator in Greifswald. In dem Vortrag wird zudem herausgearbeitet, warum gerade der Wendelstein 7-X für die Start-ups von so großer Bedeutung ist. Darüber hinaus werden die bestehenden Herausforderungen sowohl aus physikalischer als auch technischer Sicht betrachtet und diskutiert, wie – und ob – die Start-ups diese Hürden überwinden können, um den Traum vom Fusionsreaktor Wirklichkeit werden zu lassen. Seien Sie dabei und erfahren Sie mehr über den aktuellen Stand der Forschung und die spannenden Entwicklungen auf dem Weg zur Kernfusion als Energiequelle der Zukunft.
