Biography

Jan Rusz is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Uppsala University, specializing in Materials Theory. He has extensive research interests that include inelastic electron scattering, dynamical electron diffraction, and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (ELNES). His work also focuses on various X-ray optical spectroscopies such as X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), along with studying magnetic properties like magnetocrystalline anisotropy and exchange interactions. Professor Rusz is engaged in electronic structure calculations and examines strongly correlated electron systems, contributing significantly to the understanding of magnetism through advanced theoretical methods. His research delves into two-dimensional angular correlation of electron-positron annihilation radiation (2D-ACAR), pushing the boundaries of condensed matter physics and materials science.
