Audun Theodorsen

Audun Theodorsen is an Associate Professor at the Department of Physics and Technology, UiT The Arctic University of Norway, specializing in Complex Systems Modeling within plasma physics and nuclear fusion. His research focuses on turbulence, stochastic modeling, and intermittent fluctuations in fusion plasmas, particularly in the scrape-off layer of tokamaks like Alcator C-Mod. He also contributes to understanding cosmic dust dynamics using data from Solar Orbiter and Parker Solar Probe.

• Key Collaborators: Odd Erik Garcia, Samuel Kociscak, Ingrid Brigitte Mann, Ralph Kube, Juan Manuel Losada
• Teaching: Courses in Statistical Physics, Stochastic Modeling, and Nonlinear Dynamics

His recent publications include stochastic models for plasma filaments and Bayesian analyses of dust impact ionization, spanning journals like Physics of Plasmas, Astronomy and Astrophysics, and Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. His work bridges fusion energy research and space science, emphasizing universal statistical patterns across diverse physical systems.
