Taming light waves ... and other stories
The Nobel Prize in Physics this year was awarded for the generation of ultra-short light pulses. These pulses are so brief (namely 0.000000000000000001 seconds = 1 attosecond) that they can be used to „photograph“ the motion of electrons in matter. This field of research, known as attosecond physics, is a crucial area of study at the Institute of Physics and the Collaborative Research Center LiMatI. Professor Eleftherios Goulielmakis worked in the research group of the newly crowned Nobel laureate Ferenc Krausz before his appointment to Rostock and conducted groundbreaking experiments in the field of attosecond physics.
In the Physics Colloquium Professor Goulielmakis will speak on the topic „Taming light waves: The physics of the Nobel prize 2023 and other stories...“ (in English). Interested individuals are cordially invited!
Wann: on November 9, 2023, at 4:15 PM ,
