George Souliotis

George Souliotis is a Professor of Physical Chemistry at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Department of Chemistry, located in Zografou, Greece. His research encompasses nuclear chemistry, including reaction mechanisms, exotic nuclei production, nuclear fission, heavy and superheavy elements, and medical applications like proton and heavy-ion cancer therapy.

Education:

• B.Sc. in Chemistry, University of Athens (1981-1986)
• Ph.D. in Chemical Physics, Michigan State University, USA (1986-1992)

Research Focus: His work spans experimental and theoretical nuclear physics/chemistry, focusing on heavy-ion collisions, rare isotope production, nuclear reaction dynamics, symmetry energy, and the nuclear equation of state. Recent publications emphasize neutron-rich systems, fusion hindrance in superheavy element formation, and advanced nuclear models.

Laboratory & Collaborations: Leads the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry and participates in international collaborations including NIMROD and NUMEN projects focused on nuclear reactions and neutrinoless double beta decay.
