Annual Meeting of the ErUM-FSP APPA 2026

The interaction of swift heavy ions (SHI) with organic matter is of high relevance for applications such as cancer therapy as well as biomaterials’ development based on SHI irradiation. Furthermore, the interaction of SHI with complex molecular systems such as biomolecules is interesting from a fundamental point of view in terms of the excitation mechanisms involved and how the energy...

Understanding how nanomaterials respond to radiation is essential for their reliable use in high-dose environments. At the nanoscale, size effects play a critical role, fundamentally altering energy dissipation mechanisms and influencing both intrinsic material properties and device performance. To deepen our understanding of ion–matter interactions in confined geometries, systematic studies...

Exploring the structural response and property transformations of materials under combined extreme conditions holds enormous importance across diverse multidisciplinary and fundamental research domains. The application of extreme pressures can induce novel phases and structures with distinctive properties. In this project, we explore the effects on exposing materials to radiation conditions...
