About me
Adrian Oeftiger is an Associate Professor of Physics at the Sub-department of Particle Physics and the , and a Research Fellow at .
He specialises in the physics of particle beams, researching the nonlinear dynamics of high-energy and high-intensity proton and ion beams. As an associate of the at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics, , he studies beam dynamics for the High Luminosity Upgrade of the world's largest synchrotron, the Large Hadron Collider or LHC. Adrian also researches high-intensity effects in the LHC injector synchrotrons as well as for the ISIS-II Upgrade as an associate of the ISIS Accelerator Physics Group at the . In his works, he proposes novel diagnostics techniques and pushes for higher beam intensities by inventing strategies to mitigate high-intensity effects. He serves on the Beam Dynamics Panel of the International Committee for Future Accelerators. As a passionate educator, he lectures Data Analysis & Statistics for undergraduate Physics students, demonstrates at the Computing Lab for first- and second-years, and externally teaches the Accelerator Design Workshop at the international near Geneva, Switzerland.
Prospective doctoral students are encouraged to get in touch and apply.
