Curriculum Vitae

Jonas Faltinath is a PhD student in the group of Prof. Tobias Knopp for Biomedical Imaging at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf and the Hamburg University of Technology. During his study at the University of Hamburg, he worked mainly in the field of quantum optics resulting in the Master's thesis "Strongly Correlated Fermi Gases in Two and Three Dimensions" at the Institute of Laserphysics. For this thesis that presents a flexible set-up used for trapping and cooling of an ultracold quantum gas in different dimensions, he was awarded with the "Otto Stern-Preis". After that, he performed a one-year research stay at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland investigating an optical and non-destructive tomographic imaging modality on a quantum gas inside a high-finesse cavity. His current research focuses on the development of sensors based on the magneto-mechanical resonators platform as well as the emerging modality of magnetic particle imaging.

Abstract: To date a system matrix has to be obtained through a tedious calibration measurement when employing a systemmatrix-based reconstruction in magnetic particle imaging. This problem can be effectively addressed by model-based reconstruction, which takes into account both particle and scanner parameters. In this study, we focus onthe scanner parameters and in particular on the fact that the fields of experimental systems are imperfect. Forexperimental Lissajous-type data we show that the modeling error can be substantially reduced by about 18 % by incorporating field imperfections in both the transmit and receive coils.
