\"Prof.<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I was an active member of the Physics faculty between 1981 and 2016. Over that period of time, I conducted experimental research in Low Temperature Physics<\/strong> and served as head of the Technion Crown Center on Superconductivity.  For several years during which I served as the of Dean the Faculty<\/strong>, I presided over the design and construction of the Lidow Complex<\/strong>, the current home of the Faculty.  It was befitting that I was later appointed the Lidow Professor in Experimental Physics<\/strong>. I am proud of the 25 graduate students <\/strong>who did research completed their theses in my lab. Doing research with these students was the most enjoyable part of my work. I will mention some of these research projects below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, I continue to do experimental research on the surface melting of metals<\/strong>. This work is done in collaboration with Prof. Steve Lipson<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
