Learn about Igor Kaganovich's experience and research interests |  | Meet Our New Editor-in-Chief, Igor Kaganovich | We are delighted to welcome Dr. Kaganovich as the new Editor-in-Chief of Physics of Plasmas. | It is a privilege to serve as Editor-in-Chief of Physics of Plasmas, a journal that has long been instrumental in advancing plasma theory, fusion research, and related fields. I look forward to working with authors, reviewers, and the editorial board to ensure the journal remains a trusted venue for rigorous, impactful research and to help accelerate progress across the plasma sciences.
| | - Igor Kaganovich Editor-in-Chief | |
| | | Dr. Kaganovich is a principal research physicist at PPPL. His professional interests span plasma physics applications to nuclear fusion (including heavy-ion fusion), gas-discharge modeling, plasma-surface interactions, plasma-based nanomaterial synthesis, cross-field discharges, kinetic theory of plasmas and gases, hydrodynamics, quantum mechanics, and nonlinear phenomena and pattern formation. He has authored roughly 200 publications, reflecting significant contributions to plasma theory, plasma-surface interactions, plasma-based nanomaterial synthesis, and plasma-thruster physics. Kaganovich was elected a fellow of the American Physical Society in 2007. He received the PPPL Kaul Foundation Prize for Excellence in Plasma Physics Research and Technology Development in 2019 and was named a PPPL Distinguished Research Fellow in 2022.
Dr. Kaganovich brings a wealth of experience to this role, he has served as a Sr. Associate Editor of Physics of Plasmas for over 10 years. We are thrilled to have him take the helm of the journal as Editor-in-Chief. |
