Vice-Chancellor's Open Lecture: Professor Edvard Moser
The Interim Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Town, Emeritus Professor Daya Reddy, hosted a Vice-Chancellor’s Open Lecture with guest speaker Professor Edvard Moser.
Professor Barashenkov received his MSc from the Moscow State University and a PhD in mathematical and theoretical physics from the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna. His research interests include nonlinear dynamics and theory of nonlinear waves, in particular solitary waves, localised patterns and vortices. Barashenkov's early research projects focussed on the so-called dark solitons.
