DR. MAHDI SHIRAZI
Dr. Mahdi Shirazi from Universiteit Antwerp is a Marie Curie ITN RAPID fellow and gives a presentation during his secondment at the Ruhr-University Bochum on Monday, June 29th, 2015 at 9:15 am, NB 5/158 (Seminarraum EP2). His talk is about Multi-scale modelling of plasma catalysis.
n this research, the interaction of free radical species with a Ni catalyst surface were studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and this information is now being implemented in a kinetic Monte Carlo model, to study the catalytic mechanisms.
He comes from the research group PLASMANT. The research group is part of the chemistry department, and belongs to the center-of-excellence NANO of the University of Antwerp. The group specialized in computer modeling of plasmas and plasma-surface interactions, for applications in material science, the microelectronic, medical and environmental applications (plasma catalysis).
Anybody interested, is welcome to join!

DR. PETER VENTZEK
Next Monday, July 6th, 2015, Dr. Peter Ventzek from Tokyo Electron is giving a talk on "Plasma process simulation: role in process and equipment development". The talk starts at 16:00, in room ID 03/463. All interested are highly welcome.
SCHÜLERPRAKTIKANT JAKOB RAFFLER
Within the framework of the Austrian Matura (high school diploma), a pre-scientific paper is required. Jakob Raffler, student at the Bundesrealgymnasium GRG 23 Altererlaa, Vienna also supervised by Renate Stingl writes in his thesis about "Research on pulsed high power plasmas at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum". In order to get first-hand information, he is therefore a guest at the SFB-TR87 for one week (6.7.-10.7.2015) and together with Christian Maszl (Project C3, Institute of Experimental Physics II) is working both experimentally and theoretically on plasmas and their applications. In March 2016, he will hand in his work and give a presentation at his school. We wish him a lot of fun in Bochum and success with his work!
