Julian Schmitt wins Rudolf Kaiser Prize
ML4Q member and Young Investigator, Julian Schmitt, won the Rudolf Kaiser Prize 2023. Julian is recognized for “developing methods for monitoring quantum gases and measuring the compressibility and equation of state of a photon gas in the quantum range”. The €30,000 Rudolf Kaiser Prize has been awarded since 1989 to experimental physicists under 40 who have published several exceptional papers but not yet been appointed to a chair or professorship.
