معرفی
Professor Dmitry Fursa is a Professor of Physics at Curtin University, affiliated with the School of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Mathematical Sciences and the Faculty of Science and Engineering. He holds a PhD from Flinders University (1995) and has been continuously funded by the Australian Research Council (ARC) since 1996. His research focuses on computational modeling of quantum reaction processes involving light particles (electrons, positrons, photons) interacting with atoms, ions, and molecules. His work supports applications in fusion research, astrophysics, health science, and the lighting industry.
- Affiliations: Curtin University (2007–present), Murdoch University (2004–2007), Flinders University (1996–2004)
- Grants: ARC Fellowships (Postdoctoral, Research, Future), ARC Discovery Projects, ARC Centre of Excellence in Antimatter-Matter Studies
Research interests include molecular collision datasets, positron dynamics, electron scattering, and computational methods like the Convergent Close-Coupling (CCC) approach. He maintains the open-access MCCC-DB for molecular collision data. Notable achievements include guiding two PhD students to WA Premier’s Young Scientist Awards and pioneering collisional-radiative modeling for fusion plasmas and astrophysical systems.
Teaching includes undergraduate units in electromagnetism and quantum physics. His team’s work appears in top journals like Physical Review A, Journal of Physics B, and Astrophysical Journal.
