Visit the Northern Parts of the World - RISE Worldwide Internship in Canada and ERASMUS Studies in Sweden — •Matthias Zimmermann — Ulm University, Germany

International experiences become increasingly important in our globalized world. This poster presents the experiences I had during a RISE Worldwide internship at York University in Toronto in summer 2011. The internship lasted two and a half months and during that time I worked on a theoretical description of the double ionization of neon by electron or ion impact. We used generalized Dyson wave functions for our description which can be seen as an overlap integral over the wave functions of the neutral and the double ionized atom. The focus of the internship lied on the properties of the Dyson wave functions and their visualization. These wave functions can be used as initial states for the calculation of the cross section of the ionization process.

I will also present some insights into my ERASMUS studies at Lund University in Sweden during the autumn semester 2012. It has been a fascinating time with interesting courses and a Nobel lecture.
