Theoretical classical & quantum optics

Have PhD — Will travel



Hi! I am a theoretical quantum optician interested in the properties of light and its interaction with atom and mechanical systems but have worked in a variety of projects involving atom, molecular and optical systems along the years. My favorite topic is mathematical methods of closed systems. Do you think I can be of help to your project? Feel free to contact me!
