BIO

Adalbert Ding currently works at the Astronomical Optics Division, Institut fuer Technische Physik Berlin (ITP) and is a retired member of the Physics Department of the Technische Universitaet Berlin, Germany. Presently he is working in the field of Solar Astronomy, particularly investigating the solar corona during total solar eclipses with spectroscopic methods (narrow band Fabry-Perot spectrometers and partially multiplexed, high resolution imaging spectrometers for Doppler spectroscopy of the coronal ions) from the ground and from high altitudes (plane and kite). In this context he designs optical systems and high- resolution spectrometers for the visible and UV. 

He has also experience in the field of molecular and ionic collision dynamics and in the design of molecular beam apparatus and mass spectrometers. Their current project is “Spectroscopic methods  for the investigation of the solar atmosphere
