Christoph Dellago (born 1965) is a physicist specializing in computational physics and statistical mechanics. He is a professor at the Faculty of Physics, University of Vienna, and serves as the Director of the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics.

Biography

Dellago was born in Bozen, South Tyrol. He completed his education at the University of Vienna, obtaining his diploma in Physics in 1991 and his Ph.D. in Physics in 1996.[1]

After completing his doctorate, Dellago conducted postdoctoral research at the Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley from 1996 to 1999. He then joined the University of Rochester as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry (1999–2003).[2]

In 2003, Dellago returned to the University of Vienna as a professor at the Faculty of Physics. He has held various administrative positions at the university, including Dean of the Faculty of Physics (2009–2012) and Director of the Erwin Schrödinger Institute for Mathematics and Physics (2017–present).[1]

Research

Dellago's research focuses on computational physics and statistical mechanics. His most cited work is on transition path sampling, a methodology for simulating rare events in molecular systems.[3][4]

Other contributions include the development of methods for crystal structure determination using bond order parameters,[5] studies of water physics (including autoionization and van der Waals interactions),[6][7] and work on proton transport through water-filled carbon nanotubes.[8]

His recent work includes applications of neural network potentials in molecular simulations[9] and studies of levitated nanoparticles in the field of levitodynamics.[10]
