Prof. Galina Yu. Kashenock (St.Petersburg Polytechnical University, Russia)

Education

  • 1998: PhD Theoretical Physics (Candidate of Physical-Mathematical Science), St.Petersburg Technical University
  • 1995: MSc Biophysics, with Honours; St.Petersburg Technical University

Main scientific efforts

The application of the many-body theory to the structure and processes with atoms, ions and atomic clusters. The many-electron effects in the photoionisation of neutral atoms, positive and negative ions, atomic clusters, fullerenes. Molecular modelling, low-energy electron scattering on polyatomic molecules, vibrational excitations by electron impact.
