Image Campaign "Simply Saxony": Dr. Wolfgang Skorupa (in German)Materials scientist and organ player – our researcher Wolfgang Skorupa is a man of many talents. For the campaign "Simply Saxony" he was thus chosen to be portrayed as one of six persons with remarkable interests in Saxony. At HZDR's Ion Beam Center, he is researching precious organ pipes to find out how they can be protected from corrosion. Information on the "Simply Saxony" campaign (in English) |
DocClip series: Our PhD students introduce themselves
About 150 PhD students from all around the world are researching at HZDR's eight institutes. In these short clips they introduce themselves and their research.
The DocClips were produced in cooperation with SCHEUFLER | FÖRSTER WISSENSKOMMUNIKATION. | Music by Frametraxx Gemafreie Musik.

Salar Azizi – Breakup and Coalescence Models for Bubble ColumnsBubble columns aren’t only nice to look at. They are also an interesting research topic: Scientists in the field of fluid dynamics want to know how exactly these bubbles break up and coalesce. This way they can design generalized models that are essential for optimizing industrial processes. In this DocClip our PhD student Salar Azizi introduces this research. |
