Mission statement
The Walther-Meißner-Institute for Low Temperature Research (WMI) is a research institute of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities (BAdW). It conducts
History
In the following we provide a brief overview of some historical facts about the WMI, its scientific directors, important discoveries made at WMI, as well as the key research directions
Historical Roots
The historical roots of WMI go back to Walther Meißner who founded the "Commission for Low Temperature Research" in 1946 when he was president of BAdW (1946 - 1950). The first
A Brief History of WMI
The scientific roots of WMI go back to Walther Meißner (1882-1974). He was appointed to the Chair of Technical Physics at the TH Munich (now Technical University of Munich) in
The first research activities were started in the Herrsching barracks already in 1946 . After the retirement of Walther Meißner in 1952, Heinz Maier-Leibnitz, who also followed Walther Meißner on
Rudolf Gross conducts research in the field of quantum matter and solid-state quantum systems. He is particularly interested in quantum phenomena in superconducting and magnetic materials. He also
We investigate a nonadiabatic holonomic operation that enables us to entangle two fixed-frequency superconducting transmon qubits attached to a common bus resonator. Two coherent microwave tones are
