The discovery of iron-based superconductors in 2008 has attracted worldwide attention in the unconventional high-temperature superconductivity research. Among various classes of Fe-based
superconductors, the ternary “EuFe2As2” system is a unique representative, due to the two magnetic sublattices and the strong coupling between spin-, lattice- and charge degrees of freedom. Superconductivity...

Scanning the dynamic profile across thin polymer coatings opens a new field for a better understanding and the design of novel surface functionalisation. Surface functionalisation via formation of stimuli-responsive surface structures using colloidal structures is an active field of research.
Here, we used ethylene glycol (EG) based thermoresponsive microgel particles as building blocks and...

Most material of the Earth is situated in its deep interior and therefore subject to pressure and temperature conditions that are conventionally considered extreme. In addition, this material is largely inaccessible to direct observation; hence, knowledge of the interior structure of the Earth stems from a combination of geophysical probing methods such as the travel times of seismic waves and...

Neutron Beta Decay is described accurately within the Standard Model of Particle Physics using the first CKM-matrix element, Vud, and the ratio of vector and axial vector couplings, λ, as parameters. Angular correlations, spectra and the neutron lifetime are accessible experimentally, providing an excellent toolkit for investigating the structure of weak interaction and potential deviations...

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2016 was awarded with one half to David J. Thouless, and the other half to F. Duncan M. Haldane and J. Michael Kosterlitz "for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter".
In my talk I will explain the theoretical concepts awarded with the Nobel Prize and their experimental realizations with a strong focus on the...
