Michel Broyer
Michel Broyer (* 1946 in Mansiat ) is a French experimental physicist who deals with molecular physics , laser spectroscopy and the physics of atomic clusters .
Broyer received his doctorate in 1977 at the École normal supérieure on molecular spectroscopy on iodine molecules. He has been a professor at the Claude Bernard University in Lyon since 1980.
Broyer was best known in the 1990s for research on cluster physics, groups of atoms in the intermediate region of molecules and metals. He found there, among other things, shell effects as in nuclear physics.
In 2000 he received the Gentner-Kastler Prize and in 2003 the Gay Lussac Humboldt Prize ( Alexander von Humboldt Research Prize ). In 1986 he received the Prix Langevin of the French Academy of Sciences and in 1997 the "Prix Louis Vuitton - Vinci d'Excellence".
