We are pleased to announce that the paper A mathematical framework for nonlinear wavefront reconstruction in adaptive optics systems with Fourier-type wavefront sensing, co-authored by our SFB member, Victoria Hutterer, together with Andreas Neubauer and Julia Shatokhina, has been selected to be part of the special celebratory collections of articles published in 2023 by researchers in Austria. This achievement highlights the cutting-edge research of the subproject Tomography in Astronomy – Adaptive Optics led by prof. Ronny Ramlau.
16th SFB Internal Meeting in Strobl
From 1 to 5 July, the 16th SFB internal meeting took place at a beautiful venue of Lake Wolfgangsee in Strobl. This annual summer meeting offers SFB members a valuable opportunity to share recent progress in the eight different projects and discuss future research directions. We were honored to host three internationally renowned professors as invited speakers – Markus Grasmair, John Schotland, and Ivo Ihrke – as well as early-career researchers Andrea Aspri and Alina Boecker. Researchers and PhD students from Austrian institutions of excellence (RICAM, University of Vienna) and Germany also participated in the meeting.
During the event, we celebrated the 60th birthday of the SFB Speaker, Professor Otmar Scherzer.
Professor Otmar Scherzer is an internationally recognized mathematician known for his work in applied mathematics, particularly in the fields of inverse problems, imaging, and numerical analysis. He has received numerous awards, including the Förderungspreis of the Austrian Mathematical Society in 1998 and the START-Prize from the Austria Science Fund (FWF). He will also be an invited speaker at the Applied Inverse Problems (AIP) Conference in Brazil in 2025.
PhD defense: Fabian Hinterer
We are happy to announce that Fabian Hinterer, PhD student in Sub-project Tomography with Astronomy, defended successfully his PhD thesis with the title “Inverse Problems in Imaging Applications Across the Scales” on 3rd of November, 2023. A link to his thesis can be found here.
Fabian was a PhD student under the supervision of Ronny Ramlau, principal investigator of Sub-project Tomography in Astronomy, at the Industrial Mathematics Institute at the Johannes Kepler University Linz.
Members of the SFB took part in Fabian’s ceremony and presented him with a joint gift afterwards!
We congratulate!
PhD defense: Fabian Parzer
We are happy to announce that Fabian Parzer, PhD student in Sub-project Tomography with Uncertainties, defended successfully his PhD thesis with the title “Low-Rank and Scale-Space Methods for Imaging with Uncertainty Quantification” on 25th of October, 2023.
Fabian was a PhD student under the supervision of Otmar Scherzer, principal investigator of Sub-project Tomography with Uncertainties, at the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Vienna.
Colleagues from the SFB project and the Computational Science Center gathered in the evening to celebrate with Fabian his successful defense.
We congratulate!
