2022

Our postdoc Oguzhan Kara received the SNSF Swiss Postdoctoral Fellowship to pursue his career at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI). He will move to PSI in the first half of 2023, and work on the development of a high energy, single-frequency mid-infrared source for laser spectroscopy with exotic atoms during his two-year fellowship. We all wish him a successful career at PSI and look forward to seeing his results.

From August 12th to 14th, the Lyceum Alpinum in Zuoz opened its doors for the first EPT summer camp for Physics Teaching Assistants (TAs), organized by our group as part of the EPT Hub's educational training program.

The EPT Hub organised an open-air concert with Ukrainian singer Maryna Krut on the 21 June. The event served as a thank you to the TAs of the past semester and at the same time as an event to exchange experiences in the field of teaching.

"Nacht der Physik" was en event organised by the Department of Physics on the 17. June 2022 on Hönggerberg, where each research group at D-PHYS presented their research in hands-on experiments to the public.

The Swiss Research Magazine 'Horizons' features particle physics performed at PSI.

Miroslaw Marszałek successfully defended his PhD thesis on the 23 May 2022. He worked on the Laser cavity for the HyperMu project.

The "Engaging Physics Tutoring hub" participated at the Innovation in Learning & Teaching Fair 2022 held by ETH, showing its progress and achievements in rethinking physics tutoring in higher education.

Aldo Antognini, currently lecturer and senior scientist at both ETH Zurich and the Laboratory for Particle Physics at NUM/PSI was awarded the title of Adjunct Professor at ETH Zurich.

Our French collaborators and CNRS produced a nice video about our common n2EDM experiment and their activities in it. The collaboration is on track for commissioning of the apparatus with neutrons towards the end of 2022.

Ryoto Iwai successfully defended his PhD thesis on the 10 December. He developed an integral part of the muCool project at PSI.
