Sometimes it's the little things that make the difference. Especially in the world at the nanometer scale. Prof Markus Ternes is a scientist and lecturer at the two JARA partners RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich. His research area is the structure and dynamics of atomic and molecular model systems. Together with colleagues from Strasbourg and San Sebastián, Ternes has now refined scanning tunneling microscopy for his research in order to explore the magnetic structures of complex materials at the atomic scale.

Invitation to this year's aiXcelerate 2019 tutorial on performance analysis on December 02-03 and tuning workshop on December 04-05 at the IT Center at RWTH Aachen.
After a careful design, optimization and test phase at an external beamline of the Cooler Synchrotron COSY of Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ), the JEDI polarimeter (JePo) has recently been installed into the storage ring. It replaces the venerable EDDA detector, which was one of the earliest experimental installations in COSY, used for investigations of unpolarized, single and double polarized proton-proton elastic scattering experiments.
On November 8th, 2019, this year' s "Career Day" will take place at Forschungszentrum Jülich. The event is aimed at doctoral students and postdocs. From 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., participants will have the chance to learn more about career paths and options in science. One of the speakers is JARA-ENERGY member Prof. Egbert Figgemeier.
