Dr. Jeff Colvin presents inaugural colloquium in Paul Lykoudis Lecture series

Dr. Jeff Colvin from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory visited the School of Nuclear Engineering on November 16, 2016 and gave a colloquium as the first Paul Lykoudis lecturer.

The Paul Lykoudis Lecture series has been developed in the memory of late Professor Paul S. Lykoudis, who served successfully as the Head of our School during 1973 through 1992 and was a strong supporter in promoting fusion energy development. Dr. Colvin presented his research in “Advances in Non-Equilibrium Atomic Physics with Novel Laser Targets” and was the recipient of the first Paul Lykoudis Lecturer Award “For His Outstanding Contribution to the Field of Inertial Confinement Fusion.” The Lykoudis Lecture series has been organized by the Alpha Nu Sigma Honor Society with Theodore J. Novakowski serving as the President of the Society and Professors Martin Bertodano and Chan K. Choi.
