Wolfgang Jaeger is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alberta. He holds a Ph.D. from Christian Albrechts University. His research focuses on the physical chemical properties of condensed phase matter, specifically how non-bonded intermolecular interactions, such as van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonding, determine macro properties through molecular-level interactions. His investigations delve into binary and ternary systems to extract information about non-pairwise additive contributions to interaction energy, utilizing advanced spectroscopic methods. Prof. Jaeger's research objectives involve exploring rotational ro-vibrational spectra of van der Waals complexes formed by pulsed supersonic molecular expansion subject to microwave excitation. His work leverages state-of-the-art scientific instrumentation, computer programming for experimental control, and synthesis of isotopically labelled compounds. He also teaches courses related to molecular symmetry and spectroscopy.
