Physical and chemical transformation of matter in space (interstellar clouds, planetary fractionations):

     physico-chemical processes on the planetary surfaces

     physico-chemical processes in interstellar clouds

Development of a remotely controlled instrumentation suitable for exploration of chemical composition of solar bodies

Laboratory astrophysics (spectroscopic investigations of molecules relevant to chemistry in the interstellar media) and planetology ( mass spectrometric analysis of elemental, isotopic and molecular composition of minerals and ices)

Fractionation processes in space

Bio-relevant processes and their diagnostic

Specialization

Molecular Physics, Plasma Physics and Chemistry

Laboratory Astrophysics and Planetology

Spectroscopy and reaction dynamics (linear and non-linear spectroscopy, unimolecular reaction dynamics)

Mass Spectrometry (rf and TOF Mass Spectrometry)

Experimental Physics and Physical Chemistry

      -experimental setups combining vacuum systems, laser systems, particle and light detectors

      -applications of complementary techniques in simulatneous applications

      -laser spectroscopic and mass spectrometric techniques
