Dr. Mariusz Semczuk
Dr. Semczuk is the head of the Ultracold Quantum Gases Laboratory, one of two-three labs of similar type in the country. Before joining the University of Warsaw in March 2016, he was a postdoctoral fellow in the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information – Vienna of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in the group of Prof. Anton Zeilinger, where he worked with metastable helium Bose-Einstein condensate with the aim of detecting EPR correlations of position-momentum entangled atoms. He obtained his PhD degree at the University of British Columbia in 2015 based on his research on precision photoassociation spectroscopy of a degenerate Fermi gas of lithium. Dr. Semczuk obtained his Master's of Science in physics at the University of Warsaw in 2009 and his thesis was based on research conducted in the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics in Garching, Germany, in the group of the Nobel Prize winner Theodor W. Hänsch, where he constructed an apparatus for precision spectroscopy of laser cooled metastable lithium ions. During the academic year 2007-2008, he was an exchange student in the Physics Department at the University of Munich.
