I am a theoretical physicist working on solid state theory (I have completed my PhD: dephasing of electron interference in mesoscopic physics, which deals with the quantum physics of nanometer-scale electronic circuits). I am also interested very much in the foundations of quantum mechanics, as well as in neurons, artificial intelligence and history.

Visit my homepage that contains a lot of stuff about quantum mechanics:

http://iff.physik.unibas.ch/~florian/indexen

Articles that I have created:

• Fermi liquid theory
• Fermi gas
• density matrix
• phase transitions

Articles where I contributed a lot:

• BCS theory (the details)
• Phonon (more details and picture)
• Partition function (in stat. mechanics; unfortunately I later detected an overlap with the Statistical Mechanics page, where Z is called Q for mysterious reasons...)

I also helped a little in:

• Schrodingers cat (the quote)
• Meissner effect
• Quantum harmonic oscillator (the picture)

Pictures I made (mostly using [Yorick (http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/languages/yorick/doc/index)]):
