With great sadness we learned that our former colleague, Professor Paul Müller, passed away at the age of 74. Paul Müller’s life and career was strongly bound to the Physics Department at Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. He studied physics and received his doctorate in Erlangen ...

Do our physics curricula provide the appropriate data management competences in a world where data are considered a crucial resource and substantial funding is available for building a national research data infrastructure (German: Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastuktur = NFDI)? Although basic data e...

Santa Corp. has been booming ever since they developed faster-than-light sleigh travel. After his predecessor retired, the new Santa is overwhelmed by work, especially with an extra planet added to his route. Luckily, Noëlle and her father, a shifter at the HESS telescopes in Namibia, are on hand to...

Diversity (in) Physics There was significant interest among students and researchers at FAU: The symposium “Diversity in physics for the diversity of physics – Erlangen”, DIPHER 22 for short, took place for the first time from October 25 till October 27, 2022. The organizers had set themselves the ...

This year the Nobel Prize in Physics is awarded to three pioneers of quantum research. Their experiments are honored as groundbreaking not only for the better understanding of quantum mechanics but also as enabling the development of revolutionary new technologies – quantum technologies. If the now ...

The Physics Department  of the FAU will host the DIPHER-22 Diversity in Physics for the diversity of physics conference on 10/25-27/22. The department offers a wide range of diverse research topics: soft matter physics, physics of the universe, and physics of light and matter interaction. But the di...

Consortium from Erlangen receives roughly 3 million euros from the Free State of Bavaria In recognition of our outstanding expertise in quantum research: a consortium consisting of eleven researchers from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) will receive roughly three million eur...

Start of new ARIADNE programme rounds: Female students and young scientists from the Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of Sciences can now apply for admission to a new round of the career mentoring programme ARIADNETechNat. The two qualification-specific programme lines will start in parallel i...

The Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 1452 – “Catalysis at liquid interfaces” is offering an Equal Opportunities Fellowship for pursuing a Master’s Degree at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. Eligible are international female applicants to one of the CRC-related maste...

How fast does a diode actually work? If it is operated under ideal conditions, it can be recharged up to 2 trillion times per second - until now, it has not been possible to go faster in conventional high-frequency circuits. Using a physical trick, a research team from Friedrich-Alexander-Universitä...
