Marek Płoszajczak Author

Nicolas Michel is a Chief Scientist in Nuclear Physics at the Institute of Modern Physics in Lanzhou, China. He obtained his MSc at the University of Strasbourg (France) and PhD at the University of Caen Normandy (France). He worked in several nuclear research centers, including the GANIL in Caen, Michigan State University, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Kyoto University and CEA, Center of Saclay. He was awarded a Standard Fellowship for Foreign Researchers by the Japanese Society for the Promotion of Science. He is the author of 1 monograph and over 65 scientific papers. His research focuses on the study of resonant nuclei and molecules using the continuum shell model formalism. He also developed parallel codes to efficiently calculate many-body weakly bound and unbound nuclear states.

Marek Płoszajczak is a Director of Research at the French Atomic Energy Commission, currently working at the GANIL SPIRAL2 accelerator center, Caen (France). He obtained his MSc at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków (Poland) and PhD at the Rhenish Friedrich-Wilhelm University Bonn (Germany). He has held several research positions, including at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, SUNY Stony Brook, CRN Strasbourg, and GSI Darmstadt. In 1990, he became Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Kraków (Poland). He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He was a co-Director of the French-U.S. Theory Institute for Physics with Exotic Nuclei at GANIL, Caen, and co-organizer of  the Training in Advanced Low Energy Nuclear Theory initiative. He authored/edited 3 books, is the author of 7 monographs, and over 200 scientific papers. His research interests focuses on open quantum system theory of atomic nucleus. He worked on fragmentation theory and order-parameter fluctuations in finite systems, quantum theory of molecular dynamics for fermions, quantization of large amplitude non-linear theories by time-periodic solutions, and microscopic theory of rapidly rotating nuclei.
