The Momose Group

Research in Professor Momose’s group is focused on the spectroscopy and dynamics of cold molecules, atoms, and exotic particles in both ultra-high vacuum and cryogenic environments. His group’s research spans a wide range of interdisciplinary fields in chemistry and physics. Their interests lie in the understanding of quantum processes of atoms and molecules specific to very low temperatures, where pronounced quantum effects emerge from thermal averages, especially those related to astrochemistry and atmospheric chemistry.

Collaboration with the University of Freiburg

(RTG DynCAM, funded by the DFG German Research Foundation)

The annual convention is held every year in Canada/Germany to present the progress of projects and for social networking. Through the collaboration, PhDs are offered dual supervision by researchers from both UBC and the University of Freiburg, access to regular seminars on related research, and exchange visit opportunities.
