from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ingolf Volker Hertel (born June 9, 1941 in Dresden ) is a German physicist and university professor.

Live and act

Hertel grew up in Dresden and Freiburg . His family moved from Dresden to Freiburg in 1951. After secondary school in 1957, he began an apprenticeship as a physics laboratory assistant. From 1960 to 1963 he completed engineering training in Lübeck . From 1963 to 1967 he studied physics at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg , in 1969 he was awarded a Dr. rer. nat. PhD.

After a year as an assistant at the University of Mainz , he moved to the University of Kaiserslautern , first as a scientific adviser and head of department, later as professor and first dean of the physics department. In 1978 he only accepted the call to a full professor for experimental physics at the Free University of Berlin and returned as a full professor for experimental physics from 1986 to 1993 at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg.

In May 1992 he became one of three founding directors of the new Max Born Institute (MBI) in Berlin-Adlershof . In 1993, within the framework of the cooperation agreements of the MBI, he received a university professor in the physics department of the Free University of Berlin.

From 1994 to 2000 he was also a member of the supervisory board of WISTA Management GmbH and from 1992 to 2009 spokesman for the non-university research institutions in Adlershof (IGAFA). Since 2009 he has been honorary chairman of IGAFA.

From 1995 to 1998 Hertel was the first president of the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Science Association . From October 1998 to January 2000 he served as State Secretary in the Senate Department for Science, Research and Culture of the State of Berlin. Furthermore, he was and is active in numerous voluntary committees of prizes and non-profit organizations.

In July 2009 it was announced that a “Heraeus senior professorship for the further development of teacher training in physics” will be established for Hertel at the Humboldt University in Berlin .

Hertel is married and has four children.

His scientific specialty is ultra-short-term physics .

Awards and honors

Hertel has been a member of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities since 1997 . He has been an honorary professor at the University of Potsdam since 2001 and at the Humboldt University in Berlin since 2018. In February 2004 he was awarded the 1st Class Cross of Merit . After sitting on the board of trustees of the Magnus House for almost 20 years and chairing it for 10 years, he was made an honorary member of the board of trustees in June 2018.
