Welcome to the web pages of the ion beam and nuclear solid state physics group. Our research has a long tradition at the University of Göttingen, featuring numerous accelerator and analysis facilities nowadays. In the following please find an overview on current research topics, actual and former group members and and current facilities. Our publications and conference contributions are summarized on separate pages.

Ion Accelerators

Our institute hosts five different accelerators providing mass selected  ion beams from few eV (electronvolts) to several MeV (Megaelectronvolt) and for most of the elements of the periodic table, including als a few radioactive ion beams. Learn more abour our:
