About The Author
Prof Reinhold Bertlmann
Reinhold Bertlmann is a professor of physics at the University of Vienna. He studied technical physics at TU Wien and theoretical physics at the University of Vienna, obtaining his PhD in 1974. He then worked as a researcher in Vienna, at the JINR in Dubna, and at CERN. After his habilitation in theoretical physics in Vienna in 1981 he held visiting professorships in Marseille, at the University Paris-Sud and at the CNRS. From 1987 until his retirement in 2010 he was university professor at the University of Vienna, where he still teaches.
Nicolai Friis studied physics at the University of Vienna and completed his diploma thesis under Reinhold Bertlmann’s supervision in 2010. He then went on to study at the University of Nottingham, obtaining his PhD in 2013. From 2013 to 2017 he worked as a postdoctoral researcher in Innsbruck at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) and at the University of Innsbruck. In 2017 he moved back to Vienna as a Senior Postdoc at IQOQI Vienna. After his habilitation in theoretical physics in 2022, he started working at the Institute of Atomic and Subatomic Physics of TU Wien. He is the winner of the Václav Votruba Prize for best doctoral thesis in theoretical physics, awarded by the Doppler Institute for Mathematical Physics and Applied Mathematics in Prague, Czech Republic.
