Aggregation Exam by Jorge Vieira
Jorge Vieira (centre), IPFN researcher and Associate Professor at the Physics Department of Instituto Superior Técnico, has successfully completed his Aggregation in Physics, marking a significant milestone in his academic career. The two-day examination was held on January 13th and 14th, 2025, at IST.
The aggregation exam comprised two key components: a Curricular Unit Report on the course Introduction to Plasma Physics and a seminar titled 'Plasma-based accelerators and light sources: an overview from the past to the future”. The exam was chaired by Prof. Luís Lemos Alves (left in the picture), with a jury that also included Peter Norreys, Caterina Riconda, Brigitte Cros and Frederico Fiúza (right).
This accomplishment underscores Jorge's dedication and remarkable impact in advancing plasma physics, particularly in the area of plasma-based particle accelerators and innovative laser pulses.
Congratulations Jorge!
