Dr Diego Casadei (Cosylab Switzerland)28/06/2022, 14:15Physics at work in IndustryTalk
After 20 years in research in the field of particles and radiation detectors for high-energy physics in laboratory and space, the author moved to industry and is now managing a small company providing engineering services. The most appealing characteristic of a physicist in both academy and industry is the ability of solving complex problems. Complexity arises from at least few among the...

Intellectual property rights are more important than ever in this global, highly-connected digital landscape. With all of the good the rise of the internet has done for information sharing, it has become easier for ideas to be stolen, which can be damaging to both economies and innovation. Starting with a brief overview of the different types of IP rights, this talk will focus on the career...

RSBG AMS is a group of companies offering a wide range of innovative equipment and solutions for demanding nano- and microfabrication and surface analysis processes.
A few examples are shown where physics is applied to push such technologies forward. -
Tobias Vancura28/06/2022, 15:55Physics at work in IndustryTalk
In this presentation I will give an overview of my career path through various positions in startups, multi-national corporations, moving to the US and back, and just lately running a management buy-in project and investing my own and other money in a company in Switzerland and running its daily operations.
I will put particular focus on what drove me to leave one position and take on...

I briefly summarize how my education as a theoretical physicist with focus on quantum field theory and critical phenomena has influenced my subsequent work in the alternative investment industry. While developing systematic trading strategies, I stumbled across close analogies between financial markets and second-order phase transitions. This has led to a new model of financial markets as a...

Modern X-ray spectrometers in telescopes employ arrays of transition edge sensors with SQUIDS at cryogenic temperatures. The growing number of sensors requires electrical interconnects with high electrical and low thermal conductivity due to the small cooling power at these mK-temperatures. The same is true for quantum computing applications where additionally HF-losses are important. The...

We present the development of the biophysical method “focal molography” and discuss the fascinating passage from basic science to a novel bioanalytical concept. The project was propelled by insights that evolved over many years of applied research in the life-science industry. Realization of molography required basic research on a biomolecular system augmented by physics. ETH Zürich provided...

Daniel Egger28/06/2022, 18:20Physics at work in IndustryTalk
Physics is used at large in both industry and academia. Furthermore, the skills learnt during our university education are broadly applicable. I will present a small subset of these applications through the lens of my personal experience which includes accelerator physics, theoretical and experimental control of superconducting qubits, financial risk management, and quantum computing...
