Scharenberg

Dr. Lucian Scharenberg is a postdoctoral researcher in the field of particle physics and particle detection. He explores the processes within particle detectors, as well as how the interactions of fundamental particles can be observed with these detectors. To do this, he developed new detector technologies, worked on novel readout electronics and data acquisition systems, and characterized the performance of particle detection systems. While the main use of Lucian’s developments is fundamental research, technology transfer enabled their application in materials science and medical applications.

Lucian explores the processes within particle detectors and how the interactions of fundamental particles can be observed with these detectors.

Lucian received a BSc, MSc, and PhD in physics from the University of Bonn, with his PhD work being performed at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). He is from Siegburg, Germany, and now resides in Rehovot. Away from his desk, he enjoys cooking, playing the piano, and spending time with his family.
