Ricardo A. Broglia

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ricardo Amerigo Broglia (* 1939 ) is an Argentine-Italian theoretical nuclear physicist .

Broglia studied at the Cuyo University in Bariloche in Argentina (where the Physics Institute had just been founded) with a diploma in 1962 and a doctorate in 1964. From 1962 to 1965 he did research at the University of Buenos Aires and from 1965 to 1968 he was at Niels -Bohr Institute in Copenhagen with Aage Bohr and Ben Mottelson , of which he was also a member from 1970 to 1986 and honorary professor from 1990 to 2005. From 1968 to 1970 he was an assistant professor at the University of Minnesota and he was from 1968 to 1978 at Los Alamos National Laboratory . 1971/72 and regularly from 1974 to 1979 he was visiting professor at the State University of New York at Stony Brook and 1971 to 1979 visiting scientist at Brookhaven National Laboratory . 1980 to 1985 he was visiting professor at the University of Tennessee and at the same time at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory . Since 1985 he has been Professor of Physics at the University of Milan . There he headed the group for theoretical nuclear physics. Since 2008 he has also been Adjunct Professor at the Niels Bohr Institute.

Broglia is primarily concerned with theoretical nuclear physics, for example with the interaction of single-particle and collective excitations in almost spherical nuclei, pairing oscillation excitations in nuclei and superfluid in nuclei, boson models in nuclei, super-deformed and highly excited nuclei and with heavy ion reactions . Later he also dealt with solid state physics ( fullerenes , metallic clusters) and with the physics of protein folding .

From 1985 to 1995 he was co-editor of Nuovo Cimento magazine .
