DEUTSCHER Guy
Student of the École des Mines de Paris 1956-1959. Doctor of Science 1966, Faculty of Sciences of Orsay under the supervision of Pierre Gilles de Gennes and Jacques Friedel. Associate Professor, Department of Physical Measurements IUT of Orsay 1968-1971. Professor of Physics, Tel Aviv University since 1971. Founder and Director of the Laboratory for the Study of Superconductivity since 1971. Chair in Experimental Physics 1982-2004. First director of the Gordon Center for Energy Studies 1983-1986.
Main lines of research: superconductivity, transport and optical properties of inhomogeneous media, granular materials. Energy and entropy.
Among his publications, two books:
– G. Deutscher, “New Superconductors: from granular to High Tc”, World Scientific, (2006)
