Liu is a fellow of the American Physical Society (APS)6, a former head of the Physics and Astronomy Department at University of Maryland, College Park, and has held directed and advised on plasma physics research throughout his distinguished career. V. K. Tripathi is Honorary Professor in the Department of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. He did his Ph.D. in Plasma Physics from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi and in 1976, moved to University of Maryland, College Park and worked for six years in thermonuclear fusion, developing nonlinear theories of RF heating and current drive in tokamak. He has taught courses including electrodynamics, classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, plasma physics, laser physics and high-power laser plasma interaction at undergraduate and graduate level. He has visited institutes such as University of Maryland, Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics, Germany, Tsinghua University, China, National Central University, Taiwan and University of Macau. Bengt Eliasson is a reader in the Department of Physics at the University of Strathclyde. His current research includes theory and simulation of waves and nonlinear structures plasmas, relativistic laser-plasma interactions, ionospheric physics and radio wave propagation. He has published more than 200 papers in journals of international repute. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
