SUMMARY

This discussion centers on locating an English translation of Birgit Dopfer's PhD thesis titled "Zwei Experimente zur Interferenz von Zwei-Photonen Zuständen," published in 1998 at the University of Innsbruck. The user S T seeks a synopsis or detailed discussion of the key experiments in the thesis, as reading the original German version poses a challenge. Additionally, a related publication titled "Brillouin scattering and dynamical diffraction of entangled photon pairs," co-authored by Dopfer and others, is referenced, providing further context to the thesis's subject matter.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of quantum optics concepts
  • Familiarity with entangled photon pairs
  • Knowledge of academic publishing and thesis structures
  • Basic proficiency in German for original text comprehension
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the significance of Birgit Dopfer's contributions to quantum optics
  • Explore the implications of Brillouin scattering in quantum experiments
  • Investigate methods for translating academic theses
  • Learn about the process of accessing academic papers through university libraries
USEFUL FOR

Researchers in quantum optics, students studying entangled photon phenomena, and anyone interested in the academic translation of scientific works.

Can anyone direct me to an online English translation of Birgit Dopfer's Phd Thesis?

Dopfer, Birgit (1998). Zwei Experimente zur Interferenz von Zwei-Photonen Zusẗanden (PhD Thesis) (PDF). Univ. Innsbruck.

Thanks,

Note to Moderators:
I am posting a new question rather than adding it to existing threads, because the system says I have insufficient privileges to do that.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What makes you think such a document even exists? That might help track it down.
 
True. You have a point there. I should have said, is there a synopsis / summary /detailed discussion of the the key experiments reported in the thesis, so that one can get all the important concepts and information without having to read the German version.

It seems as if this is a publication related to the topic of the thesis:

Brillouin scattering and dynamical diffraction of entangled photon pairs
Birgit Dopfer, Paul G. Kwiat, Harald Weinfurter, Anton Zeilinger, and Michael A. Horne
Phys. Rev. A 52, R2531(R) – Published 1 October 1995
http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.52.R2531
 
Thank you, I had a look at the abstract and I will track down a copy of the full paper. Thanks.
