KyotoU Future Commons featuring Stephan Thürmer

Stephan has been featured in a nice booklet published by the Kyoto University, in which 125 of their promising researchers could say a few words about their own work to the broad public. It is an interesting effort on scientific communication. This booklet can be found by clicking here, and Stephan's article is shown in page 34.

Lab experiments - January 2024

Our friend and collaborator Christian Schewe spent almost two weeks performing experiments in our machine at the FHI, using the He lamp. He likes to study exotic systems such as liquid metal (GaIn and GaInSn alloys) and solutions which solvents aren’t water: acetonitrile, THF and others.
