Classical Electrodynamics

Fabian Cadiz is full Professor at Ecole Polytechnique (Institut Polytechnique de Paris) where he teaches Quantum Mechanics and Electromagnetism at the undegraduate level. He is a member of the Condensed Matter Physics Laboratory at Ecole polytechnique and his research activity focuses on the physics of novel 2D semiconductors. To develop this new activity, Fabian Cadiz was awarded a Young Researcher Grant from the French National Research Agency as well as the ERC Starting Grant 2022. His work has led to major contributions in the fields of spin physics in semiconductors and he is author of more than 45 papers in peer reviewed international journals.

Arnaud Couairon is research director (senior scientist) at Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and part-time Professor at Ecole Polytechnique. He is a member of the team of plasma physicists at the Centre for Theoretical Physics at Ecole Polytechnique. He has contributed to research in the fields of laser-matter interaction, ultrashort laser pulse filamentation and their applications as well as in instabilities in fluid dynamics. He is author of more than 180 papers in peer reviewed international journals.
