Position:<\/strong> Assistant Professor<\/p>

Educational Background:<\/strong> Ph.D. 2020, TU Wien, Vienna, Austria, M.Sc. 2016, TU Wien, Vienna, Austria, B.Sc. 2013, TU Wien, Vienna, Austria<\/p>

Research Interests:\u00a0<\/strong> Plasma Physics, Fusion Energy, Plasma Edge Physics, Magnetohydrodynamic Stability, Plasma Diagnostics<\/p>

Dr. Georg Friedrich Harrer’s research focuses on plasma physics and fusion energy, particularly on understanding and controlling plasma stability in fusion reactors. His work contributes to the development of sustainable fusion energy sources, which have the potential to provide clean, nearly limitless energy for future generations.<\/p>

Dr. Harrer’s research activities include:<\/p>

Investigating plasma confinement and stability in fusion devices, particularly in high-confinement regimes without large edge-localized modes (ELMs).
Studying the scrape-off layer and plasma-wall interactions in fusion reactors.
Developing and applying advanced diagnostic techniques for plasma characterization.
Collaborating on international fusion research projects, including work with ASDEX Upgrade, TCV, MAST-U and JET
Before joining Hampton University, Dr. Harrer completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the TU Wien and the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics \/ EUROfusion in Garching, Germany. During this time, he also served as a Scientific Coordinator for EUROfusion, demonstrating his leadership in the field of fusion research.<\/p>

Dr. Harrer’s teaching philosophy emphasizes the connection between theoretical concepts and practical applications in physics. He strives to engage students through a combination of lectures, project-based learning, and hands-on experimentation, preparing them for careers in cutting-edge research and technology development.<\/p>
