Prof. Eliade Stefanescu

Biography:

Eliade Stefanescu graduated the Faculty of Electronics, Section of Physicist Engineers, in 1970. He is doctor in Theoretical Physics, Senior Scientist I at Advanced Studies in Physics Center at the Institute of Mathematics of the Romanian Academy, Founding Titular Member of Academy of Romanian Scientists, and member of the American Chemical Society – Division of Physical Chemistry – Subdivision of Energy. He is a professional with multidisciplinary openness: electronics, physics and technology of semiconductor devices, and open quantum physics with applications in solid state physics, quantum optics, and nuclear physics. He is known for a microscopic theory of open quantum systems, a theory of a tunneling process stimulated by couplings with other particles, the invention and the description of a system converting environmental heat into usable energy, and a unitary relativistic quantum theory. He held courses of Quantum Mechanics and Dissipative Systems at Polytechnic University of Bucharest, and, as visiting scientist/professor, collaborated to different research programs of the Institute of Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia, Justus Liebig University in Giessen, Germany, and Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. He received the Prize of the Romanian Academy for Physics in 1983, the Diploma and Golden Plate of the Academy of Romanian Scientists in 2007, and the Prize “Serban Titeica” for the book “Open Quantum Physics and Environmental Heat Conversion into Usable Energy” in 2014. He participated in numerous international conferences as keynote speaker, chairman, and member of the organizing committee.
