معرفی
Prof. Hartmut Wittig is a Full Professor at the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz since 2005. He leads the Cluster of Excellence PRISMA+ (Precision Physics, Fundamental Interactions and Structure of Matter). His research focuses on Lattice QCD, hadron structure, and precision calculations of the muon's anomalous magnetic moment. Wittig holds a PhD from the University of Hamburg (1992) and habilitation in theoretical physics (1998). He has held positions at the University of Southampton (1992–1995), DESY-Zeuthen (1995–1996), and the University of Oxford (1996–2000 as PPARC Advanced Fellow).
His research interests include lattice QCD applications to hadron spectroscopy, muon g−2, and precision electroweak observables. Notable achievements include pioneering work on the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon’s magnetic moment and advancing machine learning techniques in lattice calculations. He has advised over 20 PhD students, many focusing on lattice QCD and precision physics.
Awards include CERN Scientific Associate (1999/2000) and a teaching award from Mainz University (2013). Wittig’s lab contributes to global initiatives like the FLAG (Flavour Lattice Averaging Group) and collaborates on projects such as the Muon g−2 experiment. His work bridges theoretical calculations with experimental precision demands in particle physics.
