Ramaswamy Jagannathan
Ramaswamy Jagannathan is an Indian physicist at the in Chennai.
He made seminal contributions to Charged particle beams (Electron optics and
Accelerator physics)
,
Clifford Algebra
,
Classical groups,
Quantum groups
,
Quantum algebra
,
Special functions and
Hypergeometric series
.
Career
Ramaswamy Jagannathan did MSc in Physics from the in 1971.
He did PhD under the supervision of Alladi Ramakrishnan, the Founder-Director of
Matscience. For his Doctoral Work, he received the Governor-Chancellor's Centenary Prize Gold Medal
for 1976 (Award for the Best Thesis in Science).
Jagannathan and collaborators initiated the
"Quantum theory of charged-particle beam optics",
by working out the focusing action of a magnetic quadrupole using the
Dirac Equation.. He pioneered the use of the Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation in optics. He was a invited to all the three ICFA (International Committee for Future Accelerators) Advanced Beam Dynamics Workshops, covering the emerging field of "Quantum Aspects of Beam Physics (QABP)".
