Peter Bauer

Peter Bauer serves as a Visiting Researcher at Uppsala University's Disciplinary Domain of Science and Technology, specifically affiliated with the Tandem Laboratory. His research utilizes keV ion beams to investigate fundamental energy loss mechanisms in materials, leveraging the university's accelerator infrastructure for experimental physics.

His primary research domain centers on Ion-Solid Interactions, with specialized focus on electronic energy loss phenomena in thin films and transition metal nitrides. Key interests include quantitative ion beam analysis, scattering potential uncertainties, and electronic excitation processes in semiconductor systems. This work bridges nuclear physics methodologies with materials characterization challenges.

Recent publications (2019-2021) reveal consistent methodology development in keV ion experiments, particularly addressing experimental artifacts in energy loss measurements and advancing nickel-silicon system understanding. Collaborative patterns show strong ties with Barbara Bruckner and Daniel Primetzhofer across multiple studies.

Bauer operates within Uppsala's Tandem Laboratory, a national facility providing accelerator-based research infrastructure for materials analysis and modification through ion beam techniques.
