A fascinating seminar for our students and postdocs by Sarah Polter from Gymnasium Einsiedel, providing insight into the life of a teacher and informing about the career perspectives in teaching when teachers are desparately needed. Part of our Computational Science Seminar at @tucphys.bsky.social.

Great talk of Arthur Stück of @dlr-de.bsky.social ‬, head of the Department of Simulation Frameworks, about their work in modelling systems in aerospace engineering! Part of our Computational Science Seminar at @tucphys.bsky.social.

Greetings from #DPG SKM Spring meetings at @uniregensburg.bsky.social . As always a great opportunity for students to present their work, learn about new physics and meet old friends!

Just completed a great visit to the National Institute of Science Education and Research #NISER in Bhubaneswar, India, working with my former postdoc Manoj Kumar on disordered systems and discussing with faculty Sumedha and Anil Kumar.

Nice get together at the physics departments' research group presentation at TU Chemnitz yesterday! @tucphys.bsky.social

Just arrived in Aachen for a visit of Stefan Wessel and Francesco Paris Toldin. Looking forward to some great discussions on critical phenomena and percolation in disordered systems!

The Computational Statistical Physics lab wishes everyone Merry Christmas and a good start into 2025!

Last week, Martin Breugst (of @breugstlab.bsky.social) and I ran a public explainer session to discuss this year's Nobel Prizes (@nobelprize.bsky.social) in Physics and Chemistry.

Both awards were for work related to machine learning - clearly up and coming also in the sciences!

Chemnitz as the gateway to the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge) features a beautiful Christmas Market showcasing local traditions and craftsmanship such as the giant Christmas pyramids.

A great environment for a group outing with good spirits fueled by mulled wine!
