Field of Research

In collaboration with Alexander Menshikov(KIT-IPE), and utilizing the work done by Michael Karus (Grad. KIT-IKP), Thomas Huber (KIT-IKP) and Max Renschler (KIT-IKP) under the direction of Andreas Haungs (KIT-IKP) I am developing a camera element for use in UV telescopes observing Earth's atmosphere in the search for Extensive Air Shower fluorscence signatures from Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays.
