ERC Advanced Grant

ERC Advanced Grant for the project: INSPIRATION - From inspiral to kilonova

Prof. Dr. Stephan Rosswog (Department of Physic) is receiving a grant of 2.5 million euros over a period of five years for his research on the physics of neutron stars orbiting each other and colliding. Neutron stars form when stars of a certain mass reach the end of their life cycle. Prof. Rosswog simulates those events using Supercomputers.

ERC Advanced Grant for the project: ADMIRE (Atomic-Scale Design of Majorana States and their Innovative Real-space Exploration)

Prof. Dr.  Roland Wiesendanger (Department of Physics) is receiving a grant of almost 2.5 million euros over a period of five years to research a new concept in quantum computing based on magnetic atomic chains applied to superconducting surfaces and a type of particle called the Majorana particle.

SUREPIRL (Picosecond Infrared Laser for Scarfree Surgery with Preservation of the Tissue Structure and Recognition of Tissue Type and Boundaries).

This ERC Advanced Grant explored picosecond infrared lasers (PIRL) for use in minimally invasive surgery.

These precise laser scalpels have been developed into surgical and diagnostic instruments that are designed to leave no scar tissue after surgery.

Prof. Dr. R. J. Dwayne Miller (Department of Physics) received 2.5 million euros over five years for the research project, which was carried out jointly with the UKE hospital.
