Biography: Prof. Dr. Mahmoud El Korek
Mahmoud EL Korek is a full professor at the Physics Department of Beirut Arab University. Dr. Mahmoud received his M.Sc. and Ph.D. from the University of Claude Bernard–Lyon I, France. His doctoral thesis works on the theoretical calculation of the problem of the vibrational and rotational motion of the diatomic molecule by introducing the canonical functions approach. From 1987-1993, he joined the American University of Beirut. He worked on the dipole moment and matrix elements calculations, where he received the 1990 Research Award in Natural Sciences from the American University of Beirut. In 1994, Dr Korek joined Beirut Arab University and supervised a research group in molecular physics. He received grants from the Cedre project (Collaboration between Lebanon and France) and CNRS-L (The National Council for Scientific Research). His research interests cover the field of electronic Structure, the problem of vibration-rotation of diatomic molecules, Laser cooling techniques, and astrophysics. He has published over 159 papers in the field and two books, with contributions from a large number of conferences and the supervision of more than 110 master's and PhD theses.
