Clausius Institute for Physical and Theoretical Chemistry

It was Rudolf Clausius, a professor at the University of Bonn, who in the mid-1800s coined the term entropy, formulated the second law of thermodynamics, and laid the foundations of modern Physical and Theoretical Chemistry - a true transdisciplinary scientist and visionary thinker who cautioned us more than 130 years ago to utilize nature's resources in a sustainable fashion.

Sigrid Peyerimhoff Awards for Stefan Flesch and Claudia Gräve

Two members of our working group were recently awarded with Sigrid Peyerimhoff awards.

Klartext-Preis für Wissenschaftskommunikation: zwei Bonner Forscher unter sieben ausgezeichneten Wissenschaftlern

Dr. Jan Niklas Hansen und Dr. Jan Ruland sind mit dem Klartextpreis für Wissenschaftskommunikation 2023 ausgezeichnet worden. Sieben Promovierte der Naturwissenschaften und der Informatik hat die Klaus Tschira-Stiftung für besonders gelungene Wissenschaftskommunikation ausgezeichnet, darunter die beiden Bonner Wissenschaftler. Dr. Jan Niklas Hansen forscht am Institut für angeborene Immunität der Universität Bonn. Dr. Jan Ruland war bis vor kurzem Doktorand am Institut für Physikalische und Theoretische Chemie der Universität Bonn und ist jetzt Mitarbeiter der Firma Biontech.

Catalysis scheme developed at the University of Bonn is inexpensive, sustainable, and effective

A novel catalysis scheme enables chemical reactions that were previously virtually impossible. The method developed at the University of Bonn is also environmentally friendly and does not require rare and precious metals. The researchers recorded the exact course of the catalysis in a kind of high-speed film. They did this using special lasers that can make processes visible that last only fractions of a billionth of a second. The results allow them to further optimize the catalyst. They have been published in the international edition of the renowned journal “Angewandte Chemie.”
