Matthias Kübel-Schwarz

Dr. Matthias Kübel-Schwarz is a researcher at the Institute of Optics and Quantum Electronics of Friedrich Schiller University Jena. He is affiliated with the Helmholtz Institute Jena and contributes to working groups focused on relativistic laser plasma theory, quantum field theory at extreme intensities, and high-intensity laser physics. His research spans atomic physics with highly charged ions and X-rays, soft X-ray spectroscopy, and quantum logic spectroscopy of heavy ions.

Key research areas include:

• Relativistic laser physics
• High photon flux sources (EUV to mid-IR)
• X-ray polarimetry and spectroscopy
• Quantum dynamics of ions and beams
