Peter Baum

Peter Baum is a professor of physics at the University of Konstanz, Germany. He received his PhD in 2005 from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, worked as a postdoctoral scholar with Prof. Zewail at Caltech and was a junior group leader with Prof. Krausz at the Max-Planck-Institute of Quantum Optics. His current research in Konstanz focuses on the interaction of light and matter at ultimately small dimensions of space and time, using electron pulses under light-cycle control. In his spare time, he listens to metal music and goes skiing, swimming or surfing.
