Anatoly Goldman

Head of the advanced physics teaching laboratories (last year B.Sc. and M.Sc.). Combining technical and administrative support of the lab experiments with personally instructing students and supervising 6 additional lab instructors. Moreover, I fill the position of authorized laser safety instructor.

Education and research interests:

I have completed Ph.D. studies in a field of chemical physics at Tel Aviv University. The main topic being laser diagnostics in combustion environment. The Ph.D. was followed by post-doctoral research in France and Germany in related fields of study.

My research interests include optics and photonics, molecular spectroscopy and combustion processes in various environments.
