@AvHStiftung postdoc at @DLR_de, previously postdoc at UT Austin. I develop mathematical models for non-equilibrium rarefied gas flows. All opinions my own.
On my way to the #EUCASS2023 conference in Lausanne, where on Wednesday I’ll be presenting our work on development of a photon Monte Carlo Solver for radiative heat transfer simulations in the context of aerospace applications👍
🇩🇪German cabinet agrees on 2024 budget, cuts spending on space killing German space industry:
- National space programme €371m ↘️ €313M
- contribution to @esa for IRIS² €189m ↘️ €70M
- @DLR_SpaceAgency reserach budget -€400M

2 Abs. 1 S. 2 WissZeitVG, die Rechtsgrundlage zur Befristung von PostDocs im deutschen Wissenschaftssystem, verstößt gegen europäisches Befristungsrecht und das Grundgesetz. 92% Befristungen zeigen, dass das Normalarbeitsverhältnis ohne Befristung nicht sichergestellt ist. 1/2@
Will be hosting a RGDNextGen online event next week, with two talks by young researchers (Dr. Koellermeier of @univgroningen Clément Civrais of @UofGlasgow) in the rarefied gas dynamics community about their work AND funding opportunities in the EU/UK
On this Tax Day, your annual reminder that graduate fellowships only became taxable when Reagan signed the Tax Reform Act of 1986: https://t.co/KDos6zqBuZ
Really enjoyed @DrLutzBoehm’s thread on Academic Twitter of 2022, so decided to try my hand at something similar, just random notes and things I found interesting

Der Bundesregierung liegen keine Erkenntnisse vor, aber generell ist davon auszugehen, dass Befristung Innovation fördert? Mit Verlaub, Frau @BMBF_Bund-Ministerin @starkwatzinger, das ist Mumpitz und das Gegenteil von evidenzbasierten Politik! #IchBinHanna

My IJMF Spotlight seminar "Gas-particle dynamics in high-speed flows: Insights from 18th-century cannon firings to particle-resolved simulations" is now published #OpenAccess in Science Talks. Watch it here: https://t.co/nKjlo3R0iU
And found this in a second-hand bookstore on the way to dinner, an absolute steal of a book at 2(!!!) €
Reference book for everything from integrals to thermodynamics to static loads to circuits to optics
