Background

Dr. Sizyuk has extensive background in computational physics, plasma physics and hydrodynamics, computing technologies and their application in high volume manufacture. Dr. Sizyuk major research areas include magneto hydrodynamics (MHD), thermal conductivity, radiation transport processes in plasma. Objects of interest are also investigation instruments: numerical schemes for calculations, Monte Carlo algorithms, parallel programming and software environment. He is member of HEIGHTS team from 2002. He has more than 15 years of experience in plasma science and development of the software for the plasma material interaction and EUV lithography technology. Before coming to Purdue, Dr. Sizyuk was Computational Physicist in the fusion group at the Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory.
