Two PhD Students at Hakone conference
Soad Mohsenimehr and Henrik van Impel (A6) gave presentations on their latest research at the 18th Hakone Conference, which took place in Padua, Italy, from September 1st to 6th, 2024. The event featured numerous insightful presentations dealing with low-temperature plasmas at atmospheric pressure and their applications in plasma chemical processes. One of the highlights of the conference was the active participation of students: 22 of the 56 presentations were given by PhD students, which created a very appealing environment for young researchers. In particular, dielectric barrier discharges were discussed in terms of their efficiency when used with catalysts and the basic physical dynamics of the discharges. Other topics included plasma applications in agriculture and food processing as well as the interaction between plasma and liquid. In addition to the scientific findings, the conference provided an excellent platform for PhD students to network with international participants from 24 countries, promoting collaboration between disciplines.
PI Days September 2024
The official fall workshop of our PIs took place at Volmarstein Castle.
Away from the hustle and bustle of our universities, we worked intensively and focused on the future of our CRC: current projects were discussed and new research questions identified in lively talks, smaller discussion groups and the entire plenary session.
It remains exciting with cosmic interacting matter!
Official Partner of the AI24 conference
On 4 and 5 September 2024, the German AI, Industrial AI, and Logistics Sector elite will meet in Dortmund for AI24.
Together with the Fraunhofer IAIS, Fraunhofer IML, TU Dortmund University, and the University of Bonn, the Lamarr Institute and SFB1491 present a vibrant, innovative, and international Line-Up of excellent speakers, bridging the gap between industry, academia, and policy-making.

AG2024 Splinter Meeting: The Physics behind the Multimessenger Emissions of Active Galactic Nuclei
Together with our colleagues of FOR5195 - Relativistic Jets in Active Galaxies we are organizing a splinter meeting at the Annual Meeting of the German Astronomical Society.
This year, the annual meeting will be hosted at the University of Cologne from September 09-13, 2024.
Our joint splinter meeting comprises all aspects of multi-messenger AGN research to understand the processes which produce electromagnetic radiation, neutrinos and cosmic rays. With this approach, we will foster discussions on the physical properties, interaction mechanisms and evolution of AGN as well as how AGN influence and shape their environment.
