Martin Beyer (physicist)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Martin K. Beyer (born March 29, 1969 in Ingolstadt ) is a German physicist and university professor. Since October 2013 he has been Professor of Experimental Nano- and Biophysics at the University of Innsbruck .

Life

After graduating from high school in 1988 at the Christoph-Scheiner-Gymnasium in Ingolstadt and completing basic military service, Beyer began studying physics at the Technical University of Munich in 1989 . He finished his studies in 1996 with a thesis on "Stability and reactivity of oxo and peroxorhenium cations: Investigation of elementary steps in homogeneous catalysis".

In 1998 he spent three months researching at the University of California, Berkeley , the following year he received his doctorate in physical chemistry from the Technical University of Munich (“Structure and Reactivity of Solvated Ions”) and stayed until 2000 as a postdoctoral fellow at the University's Department of Chemistry of California.

Then he returned to the Technical University of Munich as a research assistant to continue his research on the stability , reactivity and structure of clusters in the subnanometer range. In the following year he completed his habilitation and received the license to teach physical chemistry.

After researching at the Institute for Chemistry at the Technical University of Berlin as a Heisenberg Fellow from November 2005 , the Christian Albrechts University in Kiel appointed him professor at the Institute for Physical Chemistry in October 2007. In October 2013 he accepted a position at the Institute for Ion Physics and Applied Physics at the University of Innsbruck . There he teaches experimental nano- and biophysics and heads the chemical physics group .

Beyer is married and has one son.
