报告人简介:
Professor Baym received his bachelor's degree in physics from Cornell University in 1956, his . in mathematics from Harvard in 1957, and his . in physics from Harvard in 1960. He joined the Department of Physics at the University of Illinois as an assistant professor in 1963. Professor Baym has been a major leader in the study of matter under extreme conditions in astrophysics and nuclear physics. He has made original, seminal contributions to our understanding of neutron stars, relativistic effects in nuclear physics, condensed matter physics, quantum fluids, and most recently, Bose-Einstein condensates. His work is characterized by a superb melding of basic theoretical physics concepts, from condensed matter to nuclear to elementary particle physics. He has received APS Hans A. Bethe Prize (2002) “For his superb synthesis of fundamental concepts which have provided an understanding of matter at extreme conditions ” and Lars Onsager Prize (2008) “For fundamental applications of statistical physics to quantum fluids ”
