Carlson M. Büth
Network Scientist | Software Engineer | Physicist

Welcome! I am a PhD candidate at IFISC (CSIC-UIB) in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Originally trained in Nonlinear Physics, Complex Systems, and Quantum Field Theory, I now focus on transport systems—especially active mobility and sustainability. My current research investigates information transfer in complex networks using information theory measures and estimators.
With a background in both Physics and Computer Science, I primarily use computational and data-driven methods in my work. My undergrad theses were on Deep Inelastic \(e^±p\) Scattering with Boson Exchange and Interference, then Fault Injection for Robustness Testing of Satellite On-Board Image Processing (at the German Aerospace Center), and finally Analyzing the Network Effects of Computationally Generated Low Traffic Neighborhoods (at NERDS, ITU Copenhagen).
Inbetween, I interned at the Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management at TU Delft, The Netherlands, to gain experience in the field of active mobility and transport safety. Furthermore, I have assisted with a research project at PLUS (ETH Zurich) in context of ValPar.ch, exploring the impact of future climate scenarios on biodiversity and ecosystem services in Switzerland (manuscript submitted).
If you are open to collaborate or have any questions, feel free to reach out!
