Workshop des Schwerpunkts Modelle und Simulation zu statistischen, stochastischen und zusammenhängenden Methoden

Neueste Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet statistischer, stochastischer und zusammenhängender Methoden standen im Mittelpunkt eines Workshops des Forschungsschwerpunkts „Modelle und Simulation“, der am 10. April 2013 am Institut für Physik der Uni Graz stattfindet. Als Referenten konnten drei herausragende Vertreter der Disziplinen gewonnen werden: Dr. Volker Springel von der Universität Heidelberg und dem Heidelberger Institut für Theoretische Studien, Univ.-Prof. Dr. Christoph Dellago von der Universität Wien und Dr. Stefan Schaefer vom CERN.

 

Die TeilnehmerInnen des Workshops kamen aus unterschiedlichen Wissenschaftsrichtungen, wie auch der Schwerpunkt „Modelle und Simulation“ ForscherInnen aus verschiedensten Disziplinen zusammenführt. Mathematische Modellbildung und computergestützte Simulationen sind zu unverzichtbaren Forschungsmethoden in vielen Wissenschaftszweigen geworden. Innovative Modelle führen zu Problemlösungen, die mit traditionellen Methoden nicht bearbeitet werden können.

 

Springel stellte in seinem Vortrag „Simulating the Universe“ vor, wie per Zufallszahlen-Techniken deterministische Prozesse berechnet werden können. Dellago beschäftigte sich mit der Simulation von Phasenübergängen im Nanobereich und Schäfer mit Strategien bei Gitter-Rechnungen in der Quantenchromodynamik. Organisiert hat den Workshop Univ.-Prof. Dr. Christian Lang vom Institut für Physik.

During his stay as a guest researcher at the University of Graz, Gregory Kopp embarked on an impressive five-day bike tour: from Lienz over the Großglockner High Alpine Road, through Zell am See, into Berchtesgaden and to Königsee in Germany, then through Salzburg and along the lakes to the east, and finally south to Hallstatt. Covering more than 340 km and about 6,000 meters of elevation, this route took him through some of Austria’s most stunning scenery.

At the University of Graz, Peter Banzer and his team (OpNaQ group) are controlling light in extremely confined spaces, enabling entirely new applications in physics, biology, and medicine. By precisely tailoring light fields at the nanometer scale, they can exert forces, extract information, and make hidden features visible.
