1997 Nobel Prize laureate in physics Claude Cohen Tannudji visits Israel. Hene Tanuji, led the first team of researchers who succeeded in cooling atoms with light (lasers) and in fact enabled the entry into the nano-Kelvin field. On Thursday, Cohen Tanuji lectured to the physics department about his research and this coming Sunday (May 13, 2007) he will lecture to the general public as part of the Ben Gurion University of the Negev's Natural Sciences Dean's Forum.
Cohen Tanuji visits Israel as a guest of Dr. Ron Pullman and the Atom Chip group. More information on Tanuji's research and the group's work can be found on the website www.bgu.ac.il/atomchip .

On Monday, the winner of this year's Wolf Prize for Physics - Prof. Peter Grunberg, will lecture on "Spintronics in a layered magnetic structure: an abstract physical picture and applications."
On Tuesday, this year's Wolf Prize winner for agriculture, Ronald L. Phillips on "The expanding horizon - bridging molecular biology and cell biology, agriculture and health for a better future.
All lectures will be given in English.
