Prof. Dr. Stephan Paul
Academic Career and Research Areas
Professor Paul's research areas are hadron physics and particle physics with neutrons. At TUM he teaches particle and nuclear physics, optics and quantum physics as well as data analysis, among other things.
Professor Paul (*1957) studied physics at the University of Bonn and received his doctorate from the University of Heidelberg. He did research at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg and was a research fellow at CERN, where he is still active as a visiting scientist. In addition to CERN, he also works at the Japanese research centre KEK, the MLZ in Garching and the ILL in Grenoble. From 2006 to 2018 he coordinated the Cluster of Excellence "Origin and Structure of the Universe" at the TUM, since 2019 he is the co-coordinator of the Cluster of Excellence ORIGINS.
