Without experimentalists, theorists tend to drift, without theorists experimentalists tend to falter.

Research interests

The overarching focus of my research lies in properties of strongly interacting matter. Specifically, I am interested in properties of excited states of matter, short-lived excitations of hadrons such as protons, pions etc..

My main research goal lies in building bridges (tridges actually) between (1) theoretical methods based on symmetries of strong interaction interaction, (2) phenomenology and application to experimental observations and (3) results of numerical ab-initio calculations of Lattice QCD.

If you want to know more see the sources below. They are ordered on the desired level of details:

General audience (no background knowledge required, in German): Presentation-slides
Beginning student level: Article: "Theory of resonances"
Advanced student level: Physics Reports Review: "Towards a theory of hadron resonances"
Specialized reviews: (1) "Review of the \(\Lambda\)(1405) A curious case of a strangeness resonances" (2) "Multi-particle systems on the lattice and chiral extrapolations: a brief review"
