Strengthening of theoretical particle physics

The Department of Physics welcomes Prof. Dr. Emmanuel Stamou as a permanent support of the theoretical particle physics efforts. After research stays at the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot, Chicago University and EPFL Lausanne, Prof. Stamou held a junior professorship at TU Dortmund University. On October 1, he started his university professorship at our department. His primary research area are theoretical studies of dynamics and phenomena at high energy and in particular the phenomenology of flavor physics. Prof. Stamou will also work closely with the experimental particle physicists in the department. In addition, Prof. Stamou conducts research on formal aspects of quantum field theory, which also have applications in condensed matter systems.
