About
Florian is a Postdoc mainly working on plasma edge and pedestal physics. During his PhD studies he studied the inter-ELM pedestal evolution at ASDEX Upgrade and operated the lithium beam diagnostic. After defending his PhD thesis at TU Wien, he joined the group in June 2017. Florian’s research projects include the implementation of a real time Thomson Scattering diagnostic at NSTX-U and the conduction of experiments at DIII-D, which aim for deeper understanding of pedestal fluctuations. Furthermore, he is involved in the development of pedestal controllers and studies investigating the impact of low Z impurities on the pedestal.
