Curriculum Vitae

Short Biography: Dr. Wen Li was born in Yongjia, a small town in Zhejiang province of China. He graduated with honor as a B.S. from Beijing University, China. In May of 2006, he received his Ph. D. degree of chemistry from Stony Brook University. In his Ph. D. research, he studied the reaction dynamics of photon-matter and matter-matter interactions using high resolution velocity mapping technique. He joined KM group in Aug. 2006 and is currently working on ultrafast molecular dynamics probed with high harmonic generation (HHG) and cold target recoil ion momentum spectroscopy (COLTRIMS).

Curriculum Vitae

Short Biography Dr. Alon Bahabad spent his childhood years in Nazareth Ilit, a modern-day twin city to the historic Nazareth which some of its timeless landmarks influenced him deeply (like the ancient market and hummus abu-murad). He got his B.Sc from the Technion in 1996. Due to some sensitive involvement his following six years are somewhat obscured and will not be disclosed without the involvement of a very generous sum. In 2003 and 2007 he got his M.Sc and PhD respectively for studying the role quasi-periodic order can play for the purpose of quasi-phase-matching of nonlinear optical processes. After which he vowed to only be involved in the future with projects containing "quasi" a prime number of times. On the eve of 2008 he joined the KM group where he currently studies theoretical and experimental aspects of high harmonic generation. In his spare time he is involved with Epsilon Gamma Delta -- a semi-secret society vowed to eradicate the use of Greek letters from science.
