RESEARCH


Low Temperature Physics Study of the Bose and Fermi Liquids at low temperatures. Superfluidity and superconductivity.

Nuclear Physics:   Research on the compound nucleus model of nuclear reactions with the introduction of superfluid effects.

Derivation of the first shell-model mass formula for nuclei.

Electrodynamics: Study of the behavior of matter under magnetic fields of the order of 10!" Gauss, as encountered in

collapsed stellar objects, such as pulsars.

Nuclear Astrophysics: Research on the structure of neutron stars to determine their macroscopic mass and radius. It involves

low and high energy physics as well as many body techniques.

Cosmology: This work is concerned with the fundamental problem of the relation between micro-physics and gravitation. An

extensive analysis has been done on observational data ranging from geophysics to astrophysics.

Turbulence: This study aims at constructing analytical models to describe large-scale turbulence for use in geophysical,

astrophysical, and laboratory turbulence. Interesting applications of these models are the study of the evolution and structure of

the primitive solar nebula, planetary boundary layers, propagation of electromagnetic waves in a turbulent medium, etc.
