Physikerin der Woche - BSc Rebecca Seip

Rebecca is currently pursuing a master’s degree at TU Dresden, specializing in particle physics. She completed her bachelor’s degree in 2024, writing her thesis about polarized W𝛄 production at the LHC within the group of Prof. Siegert and Prof. Kobel in the Institute for Nuclear and Particle Physics at TU Dresden. The group is working on rare processes involving vector bosons, both experimentally with the ATLAS detector and theoretically with the Sherpa simulation program, as well as on the theoretical simulation of LHC measurements.

After her bachelor’s, she studied for one year abroad in Trondheim, Norway, and expects to complete her master’s degree next year.

Alongside her academic work, she is deeply engaged in outreach. She works as a student assistant for Netzwerk Teilchenwelt to support a variety of outreach activities. She especially enjoys working with high school students and sharing her enthusiasm for particle physics with them.

Currently, She is contributing to the development of the hadron therapy masterclass, which is a project day for students to demonstrate how particle physics can be applied to cancer treatment.

Physikerin der Woche - Dr. Claudia Zech

Claudia works as a Manager at Accenture, where she leads projects focused on battery production, steel production, and the digitalization of transmission grids. In addition to her consulting role, she is dedicated to promoting STEM education and shares insights into studying physics on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube under the name Dr. Claudi Curie.

Claudia's journey began with her studies in Physics at TU Dresden, where she completed both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. She then earned her PhD at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt / TU Berlin, concentrating on operando investigations of battery aging processes. After spending two years as a postdoctoral researcher in the same group, she transitioned into consulting.

Physikerin der Woche - MSc Linda Dalipi

Linda works as a physicist and XFI engineer at Axiom Insights, a deep-tech startup and spin-off from DESY and the University of Hamburg. She is part of the measurement team, where she focuses on developing the experimental imaging setup at the synchrotron facility and conducting measurements using X-ray Fluorescence Imaging (XFI). With their XFI technology, they enable in vivo pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic drug tracking, thereby supporting, for example, preclinical studies conducted by pharmaceutical companies.

Physikerin der Woche - Dr. Miriam Gerharz

Miriam is a postdoctoral researcher in the Theory Division "Theoretical Quantum Dynamics and Quantum Electrodynamics" at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg.
She works with Mössbauer nuclei that, due to their narrow linewidth, provide extreme precision at x-ray energies. To excite those narrow transitions, in their collaborations, they use X-ray free-electron lasers and explore the new possibilities provided by their orders of magnitude higher intensities compared to synchrotrons. Complementing the experiments, she does simulations to gain further insights into the dynamics of the nuclear ensemble. In particular, she looks for new effects at X-ray free-electron lasers or even brighter light sources.

Physikerin der Woche - MPhys Siân Cleaver

Siân is an aerospace engineer and project manager whose career is driven by her passion for human spaceflight and desire to return humans to the Moon. She currently serves as the Major Spacecraft Domain Lead for Power and Avionics for the Orion European Service Module (ESM) at Airbus Defence and Space in Bremen, Germany. In this role, Siân leads the team delivering the Power and Avionics subsystem and ensures that all equipment is delivered on time for integration. Siân studied Physics and Astronomy (MPhys) at Durham University in the UK and first worked for Airbus in Portsmouth and Stevenage, before moving to the Bremen site in 2019.

Physikerin der Woche - MSc Jette Heyer

Jette is a PhD student in a collaborative project between the groups of Klaus Sengstock and Markus Drescher at the University of Hamburg and a member of the Cluster of Excellence "Advanced Imaging of Matter". She completed her master's degree in physics at the University of Hamburg and the University of Helsinki.

In her research, she combines ultracold quantum gases with ultrashort laser pulses to investigate quantum phenomena across different regimes. These range from interacting many-body physics, such as ultracold plasma used as controllable model systems for stars and giant planets, to few-body systems like atom-ion hybrid systems enabling studies of cold chemistry. She developed a novel high-resolution detection system using machine learning techniques that integrates ion microscopy and electron spectrometry, including an electrostatic deflector for which a patent application has been filed. This detection unit enables deep insight into the dynamics of quantum systems involving Rydberg atoms, ions, and electrons, opening new possibilities for research in photochemistry, quantum simulations, and quantum computing.

Physikerin der Woche - Dr. Stephanie Möllmert

Stephanie leads the research group Reproductive Mechanobiology at the Max-Planck-Zentrum für Physik und Medizin in Erlangen. Her research team focuses on how mechanical properties, forces, and flows shape the female reproductive tract and regulate processes such as fertilization and embryo transport. Using label-free Brillouin microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and quantitative imaging, they map tissue mechanics across space and time. By connecting physics with reproductive biology, they aim to deepen their understanding of female reproductive health and disease.

Physikerin der Woche - MSc Victoria Voinkova

Victoria is a photonics enthusiast, currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Stuttgart. Since 2022, she has been part of the Max Planck School of Photonics, an umbrella organization that supports the broad involvement of Master's and PhD students in German research in the fields of optics and photonics. Her research focuses on the photonic integration of solid-state stationary qubits (namely diamond color centers) for creating quantum networks. In her work, she models and fabricates photonic devices, which enhance light-matter interaction and facilitate robust entanglement generation between stationary and flying qubits. By advancing the designs of these devices and improving the quality of solid-state emitters, they enhance the quantum node and bring it closer to integration into a larger network. As part of a larger team, she works towards the future of quantum communications.

Physikerin der Woche - MSc Jana Schlücking

Jana is a theoretical physicist at TU Dortmund in the group "Theory of solid-state nanostructures for quantum technologies", where she recently started her PhD. Last year, she completed her master's studies on the indistinguishability of quantum dot photons. In her PhD, they again work with semiconductor quantum dots, in particular towards using them for reliable emission of single entangled photon pairs. Her work involves mostly numerical simulations and the calculation of photon properties. They work closely together with experimental groups in Austria that are measuring the same things in the lab.

As part of her role, she also works on equal opportunities within the faculty, which is very important to her.

Physikerin der Woche - Dr. Teresa Valdivia-Mena

Teresa is currently a Fellow at the ESO Headquarters in Germany, where she spends most of her time doing independent research, while also helping in the ALMA Regional Center. She did her PhD at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, for which she won the Otto Hahn Award for young scientists. Her research focuses on the early stages of star and planet birth, where she uses powerful telescopes like ALMA (in Chile) and NOEMA (in the French Alps) to observe the cocoons where baby stars are embedded in. Her goal is to understand how the environment affects the development of stars and planets while they form.
