Felix Ostermeier
Doctoral candidate
I joined LMU's Earth- & Environmental Sciences department as a Bachelor's student after finishing highschool in 2015. In 2019 I started my Master's in Geopyhsics, also at LMU. After graduating I worked at the department and at MAGInstruments, while fighting to get a grant for my PhD project, which was finally granted late 2023, so I rejoined LMU as a PhD candidate in the beginning of 2024 with a DFG grant for investigating the magnetism of urban PM.

Research
My research interest in anisotropy of magnetic remanence and its relation to paleointensity got sparked during my M.Sc. project and continues. For my PhD project I shifted my main focus towards magnetic particles in urban PM pollution and how to better identfy them.
Working in project: Identifizierung, gezielte Extraktion und Ursprungsbestimmung von magnetischen Mikro- und Nanopartikeln in Feinstaub (DFG, 2024 - 2027)
