Theoretical Femtosecond Physics

Frank Grossmann obtained his diploma in Physics at the University of Stuttgart (1989) and a PhD from the University of Augsburg (1992). After postdoctoral stays in the US (at the University of Washington and at Harvard University (as a Feodor Lynen fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt foundation), as well as at the University of Notre Dame) the habilitation and the "venia legendi" were obtained at the University of Freiburg (Germany) in 1998. At his present institution, Technische Universität Dresden, the "venia legendi" was granted in 2000. Up to the present date he is working in teaching as well as in research at the "Institut für Theoretische Physik" in the "Theoretical Atomic and Molecular Physics" group. Several research stays led to the Weizmann Institute (Israel), ITAMP (Cambridge, USA), Kyoto University (Japan), as well as Nanyang Technological University (Singapore).
