"My group is involved in modern subfields of accelerator physics, in particular the interaction between electrons in the storage ring and femtosecond laser pulses to produce ultrashort pulses in the extreme ultraviolet and terahertz range. We are developing electronic and optical techniques for beam diagnostics and machine learning methods to optimize accelerator parameters. For example, one new activity is Compton scattering of laser photons by electrons to precisely determine their energy and other parameters. We collaborate with other accelerator centers in several areas, e.g., further development of synchrotron radiation sources and free-electron lasers, temporal and spectral shaping of terahertz pulses, and control of beam parameters in electron and proton machines. A current future project is the design of an electron source for time-resolved electron diffraction."

Location & approach
The campus of the Technical University of Dortmund is located near the freeway junction Dortmund West, where the Sauerland line A45 crosses the Ruhr expressway B1/A40. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. The university is signposted at both exits.
The "Dortmund Universität" S-Bahn station is located directly on the North Campus. From there, the S-Bahn line S1 runs every 20 or 30 minutes to Dortmund main station and in the opposite direction to Düsseldorf main station via Bochum, Essen and Duisburg. In addition, the university can be reached by bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr transport association, and DSW21 also offer an interactive route network map.
One of the landmarks of the TU Dortmund is the H-Bahn. Line 1 runs every 10 minutes between Dortmund Eichlinghofen and the Technology Center via Campus South and Dortmund University S, while Line 2 commutes every 5 minutes between Campus North and Campus South. It covers this distance in two minutes.
From Dortmund Airport, it takes just over 20 minutes to get to Dortmund Central Station by AirportExpress and from there to the university by S-Bahn. A wider range of international flight connections is offered by Düsseldorf Airport, about 60 kilometers away, which can be reached directly by S-Bahn from the university's train station.

The facilities of TU Dortmund University are spread over two campuses, the larger Campus North and the smaller Campus South. Additionally, some areas of the university are located in the adjacent "Technologiepark".
