Eliade Stefanescu, graduate of Faculty of Electronics, Section of Physicist Engineers in 1970, and PhD in Theoretical Physics in 1990, is a professional with multidisciplinary openness. In 1975 he followed a specialization course in physics of semiconductor devices, and, as a Scientist from 1976, and a Senior Scientist III from 1978, he worked in the field of dynamical characterization of semiconductor devices. From 1978, he worked in physics of optoelectronic devices, especially in optical bistability. From 1987, and from 1990 as a Senior Scientist II, he worked in the field of open quantum physics. In 1989 he predicted a phenomenon of amplification of a coherent electromagnetic field on the account of the environmental heat, and in 1991 discovered that the penetrability of a potential barrier can be increased by coupling to a dissipative system – thus, he described the decay spectrum of some cold fission modes. As a Senior Scientist I, from 1997 he developed a microscopic theory of open quantum systems, discovered a physical principle for the heat conversion into usable energy, invented semiconductor devices, and gave an analytical, microscopic description of the involved phenomena. In 2014, he produced a unitary relativistic quantum theory. In the years 1995-2000, he held a course called Dissipative Systems, in a program of the Polytechnic University of Bucharest for the master degree. He collaborated with scientists from the Institute of Theoretical Physics in Giessen, Germany, and the Department of Theoretical Nuclear Physics of the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.

Prof. Yoshihisa Yamamoto is working at E.L. Ginzton Laboratory of Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA and National Institute of Informatics, Tokyo, Japan. His group is primarily concerned with studying quantum dynamics of spin and exciton in semiconductor nanoscale systems. His experimental project combines ultrafast optical spectroscopy with semiconductor microcavities with artificial atoms (quantum dots or impurities) at low temperatures and high magnetic fields.

Yamamoto's current research interests are in the areas of quantum information, quantum optics, and mesoscopic physics such as squeezed states, quantum nondemolition measurements, cavity quantum electrodynamics, quantum computers, and mesoscopic electron transport and tunneling.

Dr Hazel Cox is a Senior Lecturer in Chemistry at the University of Sussex. Her first degree is in mathematics and for her PhD she used computer algebra to solve the Schrödinger equation for three particle systems. Her research interests involve using quantum chemistry to determine the underlying chemical and physical properties responsible for the structure, reactivity and spectroscopy of metal-ligand complexes and to probe the boundaries of current methodologies by exploring the fundamental interactions in few particle Coulomb systems.

John R. Sabin is Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Florida and Adjunct Professor at the University of Southern Denmark.

His main research interest is in the interaction between high energy radiation and matter, in particular the stopping power of materials. The characteristics of the deposition of energy in matter by swift, massive particles is of interest in areas ranging from design of inertial confinement fusion devices to radiation therapy. The understanding and prediction of the processes involved in such energy deposition provide the unifying theme of the research. The research program has three distinct but interrelated parts dealing with: • stopping in atoms and molecules, with especial emphasis on aggregation effects • stopping in ultra-thin (several atomic layers) films as models for imbedded layers, overlayers and interfaces and as intermediates between gas and solid targets • trajectory dependent stopping if swift ions under channeling conditions in bulk targets

Prof. Patrick Siarry was born on May 28, 1952, in Pertuis. His research area is relatively (since 1982) new “metaheuristic” optimization such as simulated annealing, which are indicated for the so-called problems of “hard optimization” because of their ability to avoid in principle, trapping in sub-optimal solutions. This topic is multidisciplinary in nature, both by the source of the methods studied (physics, biology, ethology). Much of his work is explicitly one or the other keywords – in particular, modeling, identification, learning rule bases (artificial intelligence), control, nondestructive testing and maintaining the biological and medical engineering.
