Wolfgang Stahl (1 April 1956 in
Kiel – 28 August 2020 in
Aachen) was a German spectroscopist. He was a professor at the
RWTH Aachen University.
Life
Wolfgang Stahl finished his
diploma in
chemistry at the
University of Kiel in 1983.[1] He received his doctorate in 1987 at the University of Kiel.[2] In 1992, he finished his
habilitation in physical chemistry at the University of Kiel.[2] Since 1995, he was
professor for molecular spectroscopy at the
RWTH Aachen University.[2] For many years he was chairman of the examination board for chemistry and person in charge for the
Erasmus Programme in chemistry.[1]
Research
His research focused on following topics in the field of microwave spectroscopy:[3]
Large amplitude motions in molecules
Theory of rotational spectra
Quantum mechanical and group theoretical calculation
Nuclear quadrupole coupling
Publications (selection)
He published 149 journal articles.[4] A selected number of his articles for different topics:
Instrumental work for Fourier transform microwave (FTMW) spectroscopy
Grabow, Jens‐Uwe; Stahl, Wolfgang; Dreizler, Helmut (1996-12-01). "A multioctave coaxially oriented beam‐resonator arrangement Fourier‐transform microwave spectrometer". Review of Scientific Instruments. 67 (12): 4072–4084.
