Chair of Applied Electrodynamics and Modeling
The Chair of Applied Electrodynamics and Modeling is an educational and research department of the Faculty of Radiophysics, whose scientific research is related to the theory of nuclear matter and astrophysical manifestations, the study of the behavior of atomic systems in the intense non-monochromatic electromagnetic wave field, physical and computer modeling of electrodynamic systems (resonators, waveguides).
The chair was founded in 1974 and until 1983 was called the Chair of Nuclear Physics. During that period, the chair trained more than a hundred young specialists in the specialty "Nuclear physics and atomic energy of low energies" for the newly built Armenian nuclear power plant in those years. For different years, the chair was headed by a Ph.D., Professor and correspondent member of RA NAS Yu. Vardanyan, Ph.D., Professor G. Hajyan, and Ph.D., Associate Professor G. Alaverdyan.
Since 2019, the chair has been reorganized and renamed the Chair of Applied Electrodynamics and Modeling. Now it is headed by Ph.D., Professor Arsen Babajanyan.
In the last two decades, the chair has made a significant contribution to the research of the theory of nuclear matter and its astrophysical manifestations, in particular to the phase transition to the strange quark state in the nuclear plasma, the internal structure and stability of neutron and strange stars with a quark core, the internal structure, stability and observational manifestations of strange dwarfs. Research was also carried out in the chair on the behavior of three-level atoms in an intense non-monochromatic electromagnetic wave field, on the structure of the electromagnetic field in toroidal resonators with an elliptical section.
The mission of the chair is:
• to provide basic knowledge about electromagnetic field theory and applications,
• train high-level specialists in the field of electromagnetic wave propagation, computer modeling, and applications of electrodynamic problems,
• carry out research in the field of physics of superdense space objects and physics of electrodynamic systems,
• present modern computer modeling and simulation methods and methods in solving applied electrodynamic problems.
The Chair implements the "Computer Automation and Modeling of Scientific Experiment" Undergraduate and "Computer Modeling and Simulation of Electrodynamic Processes" Master's educational programs․
