Nándor Bokor

Nándor Bokor serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, maintaining his office in room F III. 2F 12 with contact via bokor.nandor@ttk.bme.hu or +36 1 463 4148.

His research spans critical domains in optical physics and pedagogy:

• High numerical aperture focusing
• Fluorescence, infrared, and x-ray microscopy
• Super-resolution microscopy
• Holography
• Concentration of diffuse light
• Methodological issues in teaching relativity

Analysis of his 2004-2019 publications reveals dual expertise: pioneering optical engineering for microscopy (including 4Pi systems, Laguerre-Gaussian beam manipulation, and phase plate design) and innovative relativity pedagogy using energy-momentum diagrams. His microscopy work consistently targets resolution breakthroughs, while his educational contributions transform abstract relativistic concepts into teachable frameworks through thought experiments and diagrammatic analysis.

Teaching responsibilities include Hungarian-language courses in Descriptive Relativity, Curved Spacetime, and foundational Physics sequences for electrical, chemical, and bioengineering students. He has translated key physics texts including Gabriel Weinreich's Geometric Vectors and Daniel Fleisch's A Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations, and contributed to the free online second edition of Exploring Black Holes.
