Understanding Wave Phenomena
Waves are everywhere, and understanding their behavior leads us to understand nature. The goal of CRC 1173 »Wave Phenomena« is therefore to analytically understand, numerically simulate, and eventually manipulate wave propagation under realistic scenarios by intertwining analysis and numerics.
The first CRC postdoc days are approaching. We organize this as a sign of esteem for the research of our postdocs. On these two days about ten of our postdocs will present their current research. For more details follow the link below.

On Saturday there has been the 12. KIT Meisterschaft. The waves@KIT team competed once again and achieved a remarkable result, finishing sixth in the team standings. Congratulations!
To the results
Congratulations to our colleague Michael Kirn who has been awarded the Best Poster Prize at the SciCADE 2026. This is amazing and really successful.
A pretty large group of us (including former colleagues) is attending the Scientific Computing and Differential Equations (SciCADE) 2026 in Edinburgh, UK, this week. There's a lot going on there.

At the last tea session, we celebrated the CRC's 11th anniversary with delicious fruits and self-baked cakes. Some people of the CRC have been captured in this group shot. Unbelievable, that the last year of the CRC has begun.
This year we offer a second school which will be more about Analysis. We are happy that we were able to secure Mariana Haragus (France) and Todd Kapitula (USA) as speakers. Registration deadline is May 31.

Here is the second one. A general goal is to create a balanced work-life environment. We try to live and work according to this principle. Let's see how we captured this. Enjoy.

We have commissioned the production of two new films. This one here deals with the cooperation between Analysis and Numerics. The second film will be published here soon. Have fun watching.

We are happy that our new book Wave phenomena has been finally published in the Oberwolfach Seminars series.
Have a look at Springer
Finally, today we have published the video of our diversity project. You can share it now with friends and family. Have fun watching.
