The study of radioisotopes in charged particle traps is a very active field in nuclear physics research. To date, capturing the radioisotopes after synthesis involves a series of production and separation stages that limit the types and lives of species that may be studied. We propose to produce radionuclides directly in the trapping environment as highly charged ions by annihilating atoms with antiprotons.
Congratulations, Milena!
Thesis Title: Optical clocks with trapped ions
Optica (formerly OSA), Advancing Optics and Photonics Worldwide, and the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft (DPG) have named Rainer Blatt, University of Innsbruck, Austria, the recipient of the 2023 Herbert Walther Award.
Congratulations, Armin!
Thesis Titled: Frequency Stabilization of a 729 nm Ti:Sa Laser for Qubit Manipulation in Trapped Calcium Ions
Welcome Peter! Before coming to Innsbruck, he completed his Bachelor and Master degree at ETH Zürich and wrote his Master thesis with Hartmut Haeffner at UC Berkeley, where he worked on the cooling and readout of electrons in a Paul trap. Now he will start working on the qudit project with Martin Ringbauer.
