13. Biographical information
I was born in Baghdad-Iraq on November 21, 1944. I attended public schools in several districts
of Baghdad and eventually entered the College of Sience in the University of Baghdad (UB)
during the period 1964-1965. I then was an instructor of physics at the UB until July of 1966. After
that I started my graduate studies in physics at MIT, where I remained until completion of my PhD
in September 1971. I started my career at the University of São Paulo in October of 1971.
I then was promoted to associate professor in 1977 and later to full professor in 1987. I received
the J. S. Guggenheim fellowship during the academic year of 1987-1988. I then continued my
activities at USP both on resarch and teaching. I published over 200 papers in refereed jornals.
I was the distinguished Tinker Visiting Professor at the University of Wisconsin at Madison during
the year 1979-1980. I was a visiting professor at MIT during the period of January 1994 - July
1995. I was a visiting scientist (consultant) at the Institute of Theoretical Atomic and Molecular
Physics at Harvard University. I also served as the Scientific Secretary of the DOE - NSF Nuclear
Science Long Range Plan (Jan. - July 1995). I served as the head of the Nuclear Physics
Department of the Instituto de Física of the University of São Paulo during the period of October
1995- October 1999. I then served on the Research Evolution Committee of the CNPq
(1997-1998). A bit later I served as the President of the Committee on Research of the Physics
Department at USP (November 1999- November 2003).
Over the last 19 years I have been involved rather heavily in four major research efforts, These
are: 1. Laser Driven Accelerators, 2. Theoretical Nuclear Physics, 3. Quantum Chaos Theory and
Applications and 4.Theory of Bose-Einstein Condensation. Of the four, the second, Theoretical
Nuclear Physics, is my main research specialty. I have, in collaboration with several colleagues,
developed the reaction theory for exotic (neutron-or proton-rich) nuclei, a detailed model for the
excitation and decay of multiple giant resonances and studied in details fundamental symmetry
violation in nuclei. I have also collaborated with experimental colleagues in Brazil, USA, Germany
and France, in interpreting data in the field of heavy-ion reactions and dynamics as well as in
assessing the degree of isospin violation in light nuclei.
The first topic, Laser Driven Accelerators, was inspired by the desire of developing less expensive
and smaller TeV-energy accelerators at the time when the SSC was under debate. Together with
a colleague at the Univ. São Paulo we suggested, in a Phys. Rev. Lett. article, a mechanism
where a powerful laser is coupled to a beam of electrons and through an ingenious setup
involving magnets with alternating polarities placed at distances (determined self consistently)
along the accelerator, the electrons injected with MeV energies, could reach GeV-energies after
travelling one meter. This work was later further developed with A. Kerman (MIT) and the
mechanism is being looked at Livermore National Laboratory.
Currently we are studying the problem of taking into account, nonperturbatively, the effect of
radiation damping in the calculation and eventual design of the accelerator.
The third topic, Quantum Chaos and Applications, has received considerable attention from me
and my collaborators and. I have developed (together with M.P. Pato) the Deformed Gaussian
Orthogonal Ensemble (DGOE), which can be used to investigate cases intermediate between
chaos and order in the quantum domain. The DGOE has been generalized to the other universal
ensembles (Gaussian Unitary and Simplectic). We have used the DGOE to investigate isospin
violation in nuclei, metal-insulator transition and the curvature distribution of levels representing
standing waves in acoustic resonators. Most of these investigations were reported in the Physical
Review Letters. Currently, together with experimental colleagues we are in the process of
establishing a "Center for Experimental and Theoretical Studies in Quantum Chaos and Related
Areas- ETC*) funded through a US$120,000.00 FAPESP fund, where an acoustic resonator
setup is being assembled (similar to the one at the NBI in Copenhagen).
The fourth topic, Theory of Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC), which is a natural extension of my
activity in Nuclear Many-Body Theory, has been under my scrutiny since 1998. At the time I was
visiting the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CFA) and the Institute for Theoretical
Atomic and Molecular Physics (ITAMP), housed at the CFA, and started discussing the
importance of Feshbach Resonances in the phenomenon of BEC with colleagues there. This
resulted in a proposal (appeared in Phys. Rev. Lett.), supported with calculation, in which the idea
of a hybrid atomic-molecular BEC was advanced for the first time. I am still working on hybrid
BEC's, be them atomic,-molecular or atom-atom (different species or at different states). Further,
during the last 5 years I have been investigating the high angular momentum states of rotating
BEC's. The BEC activity is being fully supported by FAPESP and also by the Brazilian Institute for
Quantum Information (BIQI), one of seventeen Millennium Institutes established in 2002 by the
Brazilian Federal Government. I was a Principal Investigator and Member of the Scientific
Counsel of the BIQI. The BIQI has been recently renewd under a new name: “National Institute
for Science and Technology: Institute of Quantum Information”. The NIST- IQI will last three years
starting in 2009.
I should mention that science policy making and administrative tasks, which I undertook during
the last 14 years, were of paramount importance to enhance my scientific vision and leadership:
The first task was acting as the Scientific Secretary of the US "Long Range Plan" in Nuclear
Science prepared by NSAC of the US NSF-Department of Energy in 1995 at MIT, and the
second, administrative, task was acting as the Head of the Nuclear Physics Department of the
Institute of Physics of the University of São Paulo during the four-year period, October 1995October-1999. During my tenure as Head of the Department, I helped shape a scientifically more
competitive Department, by redirecting the effort towards the area of Rare Isotope Physics. This
branch of nuclear science is currently of great priority in the USA and Japan. I am the coordinator
of a half-million $US project (RIBRAS), fully funded by FAPESP, aimed at equipping the
Department with a twin-solenoid system that will enable me and my experimental colleagues to
produce rare (neutron-rich) isotopes. The study of the reactions induced by these nuclei will shed
light on several important issues in astrophysics.
One comment that I would like to make concerns my publications over the past 19 years. I
published 16 Physical Review Letters, 9 in Physics Letters (8 in B and 1 in A), 81 in the Physical
Review [C (Nuclear Physics), A (Clod atomic gases), E (Quantum Chaos)], 8 in Annals of
Physics, 1 Advances in Nuclear Physics, 6 Physics Reports, 27 in Nuclear Physics A, 3 Physica
A&B, and 11 in other refereed journals, totalling 131 papers during the 19 year period 1990-2009.
With regards to international bilateral collaboration, I should mention that over the past ten years I
have been the Principal Investigator (Brazilian side) of two consecutive NSF (USA)/CNPq(Brazil)
collaborative programs involving USP here and the TUNL laboratory at Duke University (Principal
Investigator, US-side, Gary Mitchell, an experimental nuclear physicist). These two projects span
the period 1999-2003. Further, I was also the Principal Investigator of a DAAD
(Germany)/CAPES(Brazil) involving USP, The Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and the
Brazilian Aeronautical Institute, on the Brazilian side and the GSI-Darmstadt in Germany, during
the two -year period, 2000 and 2001. Finally I was also the Principal Investigator of a CAPES
(BRAZIL)/INEA(FRANCE) agreement involving USP and Orsay (France).
Finally, I mention that I have been very active in helping Iraqi scientists to get involved in
exchange.programs. I am doing this through my association, as a member of the Board of
Directors, with the Iraqi Society for Higher Education Abroad (www.iraqihighereducation.com).
Highlights of my work in Nuclear Physics
I have worked on a wide range of topics in nuclear theory. I will give below a description of my
major accomplishments in this field:
1. The usual scenario of a typical nuclear reaction involves the gradual, multistep, increase
in complexity through the excitation of configurations with two, three, etc. pairs of particlehole excitations. This picture was advanced by Weisskopf back in the early sixties, but
was never put through a direct experimental test till K. W. McVoy and I suggested that
the test should be done through an Ericson-type analysis, using a model we have
developed for this purpose; the Nested-Doorway Model (M.S.Hussein and K.W.McVoy,
Phys.Rev.Lett. 43 (1979) 1645). A strong collaboration with the experimental group at
Milan, lead by Laura Colli-Milazzo and Roberto Bonetti, lead to the confirmation of our
findings and thus supplied a backing to Weisskopf’s picture.
2. During the eighties I worked mainly in heavy-Ion reaction theory and collaborated closely
with experimentalists in São Paulo. In particular, I clarified the origin of the anomalous
large-angle scattering of systems such as 16O +28Si (anomalous in the sense that the
cross section, after dropping to small values at intermediate values of the angle, a
behaviour expected of strongly absorptive system, starts increasing as 180o is
approached) as being related to the alpha-cluster nature of these nuclei which allows
elastic transfer (L.F.Canto, R.Donangelo, M.S.Hussein and A.Lepine, Phys.Rev.Lett.51
(1983) 95). This was later verified in other alpha-cluster systems by my experimental
collaborator, Alinka Lepine.
3. I have always maintained interest in formal development in scattering and reaction
theories. Over the last twenty years, I have developed the formal complex potential
scattering theory which culminated in two publications in the Annals of Physics
(Ann.Phys.175(1987)197; ibid 177(1987)58 ). For this and other related works, I was
awarded in 1987 a J.S.Guggenheim Fellowship. Just three years earlier I published a
work with E.J.Moniz (M.S. Hussein and E.J.Moniz, Phys.Rev.C29 (1984) 2054) which
demonstrated the futility of putting into practical use an equivalent energy-independent
version of the otherwise physically motivated energy-dependent optical potential. This
lead the community to critically assess the wisdom of seeking such an energyindependent potential. Another important development in nuclear scattering theory was
accomplished in 1994, through the extension of the Doorway Expansion Method to
coupled channels treatment of heavy-ion reactions (A. Breitschaft, L.F.Canto,
H.Schechter, M.S.Hussein and E.J.Moniz, Ann.Phys. (NY) 234 (1994) 162).This
semianalytical method allows a better assessment of the convergence.
My work in scattering theory is rather extensive and I am in the process of finalizing the
writing of a text on the subject with L.F.Canto. The book, invited by the publisher, entitled
“SCATTERING THEORY OF ATOMS, MOLECULES AND NUCLEI”, is tentatively
scheduled to be delivered to the Editor of World Scientific Publishing Company in mid
2010.
4. Over the last 19 years, I have been heavily involved in research in the area of reactions
induced by neutron- and proton- rich nuclei. My major contribution in this area is the work
I did in 1991-1992 on the relevance of the low-lying dipole excitations of these exotic
nuclei on their fusion with other nuclei and the potential enhancement of the production
of superheavies (M.S.Hussein, Nucl.Phys.A531 (1991) 192). This work prompted an
extensive theoretical and experimental investigation by several groups. Other types of
reactions involving these nuclei were studied and experiments were proposed. In
particular the coupling of the different channels (elastic, inelastic, fusion, etc.) to the low
Q-value breakup channels is calculated and is found to be of paramount importance,
even at low energies.
I consider myself a world expert in this important and expanding field of research in
nuclear physics. The first book on the subject, co-authored with Carlos Bertulani and
Gottfreid Muenzenberg has appeared: “PHYSICS Of RADIOACTIVE NUCLEI”, C. A.
Bertulani, M. S. Hussein and G. Muenzenberg, NOVA SCIENCE PUBLISHERS (NY)
2001.
5. Recently, I have also been quite involved in assessing the degree of parity and isospin
violation in nuclei. My NSF/CNPq collaborative project allowed me and my colleagues in
São Paulo to maintain a strong interaction with the experimental group at TUNL led by
Gary Mitchell. We have developed a new scheme, within random matrix theory, to assess
partial breakdown of a given symmetry and successfully applied the idea to isospin
mixing in 26Al (studied extensively by Mitchell). The average Coulomb matrix element
responsible for isospin violation was extracted from the Mitchell data and was found to be
in agreement with values extracted from other data (width of isobaric analog
resonances). Our findings are summarized in: M.S.Hussein and M.P.Pato, Phys. Rev.
Lett.70 (1993)1089; ibid. 80 (1998) 1003; ibid. 84, 3783 (2000). We are currently
assessing the degree of mixing of the K quantum number in deformed compound nuclei.
The issue of parity violation in epithermal neutron scattering from 238U and 232Th was also
studied by us. The TRIPLE data was analyzed using a simple doorway picture. So far this
model, which explains the positive average (nonzero) value of the longitudinal asymmetry,
is the only one which survived. More work is needed. The results of this effort were
published in a review article in 2000: H.Feshbach, M.S.Hussein, A.K.Kerman and
O.K.Vorov, Advances in Nuclear Physics, 25 (2000) 207-273.
6. Since 1998, I have been involved in the development of a theory of excitation and decay
of multiphonon resonances (double, triple, etc. giant dipole resonances). My collaborators
and I incorporate in the usual treatment of the Coulomb excitation of these resonances in
heavy-ion reactions, the Brink-Axel mechanism (the excitation of collective states on top
of intrinsic complex configurations, which are reached in the intermediate stage(s) of two
or three step excitations through the damping of the single phonon resonance), which
renders the model close to microscopic models, with the advantage of being able to treat
cases such as triple phonon states, much too complicated to be treatable microscopically.
See, e.g., B.V.Carlson, M.S.Hussein, A.F.R.de Toledo Piza and L.F.Canto,
Phys.Rev.C60 (1999) 4604. This theory accounts for the experimental cross sections of
double giant resonances over a wide range of projectile masses. It can also explain the
observed large value of the direct decay of these resonances. The theory is unique in this
respect. Finally, this theory allows my collaborators and I to predict the cross sections of
triple resonances, a feat not shared by other realistic models.
7. One of my most important contributions has been in the area of building a leading center
of research in nuclear physics in my working place, the University of São Paulo. Though I
am a theorist, I have been a key player in equipping the Department of Nuclear Physics
at USP with a rare isotope facility coined by me “RIBRAS” (Rare Ion Beam in BRASsil).
This twin solenoid separator, which is coupled with the local Pelletron was installed in
2003 and is functioning normally. Through this endeavor, Brazil has become the only
country in the southern hemisphere to possess such an important facility and has joined
Europe, Japan and the USA in this type of basic research in nuclear science of great
importance in the study of the limit os stability of the elements as more neutrons and/or
protons are added. The field is extremely important in the quest to understand the
evolution of stars and the general field of nucleosynthesis. I was the Head of the Nuclear
Physics Department-USP during the period October 1995- October 1999, and during my
tenure I convened a group of international experts: Professor Rick Casten of Yale,
Professor James J. Kolata of the University of Notre Dame, Professor Antonio Villari of
GANIL-France, in the area of RIB ( Rare Ion Beams) who, together with many of the
Brazilian nuclear physicists ( both at USP and from institutions in Rio de Janeiro and
others in Brazil), had a two-day workshop to discuss the best option for Brazil to enter in
this important research area. A report was drafted, and a few months later, I used this
report as a background material to submit a proposal to FAPESP to acquire the twin
solenoid in 1998. The approval of the proposal by FAPESP was quite prompt, with the
three referees who were consulted, giving very positive reports. The funding started in
1999.
Of course I invited a group of trusted and very competent experimentalists to do the hard
work of actually using the US$ 500,000.00 given to us by FAPESP for RIBRAS, to buy
and install the equipment. The group, who is actually in charge of RIBRAS, is Professor
Alinka Lepine, Professor Rubens Lichtenthaler, and Professor Valdir Guimaraes, all of the
Nuclear Physics Department of USP. Two experimental PhD and 1 MSc theses have been
concluded in the area of RIB with RIBRAS since it´s commissioning in February 2004. Two
other PhD theses will be concluded in 2009. Over the last 5 years ( 2004 -2009), two
years passed with no primary beam, as the Pelletron was in maintenance. Thus I can fairly
say, that the RIBRAS, which I had the key role in planning and acquiring, produced 4 PhD
and 1 MSc theses over a period of only 3 years. Furthermore, one letter paper (in Physics
Letters B) and several other publications in refereed journals as well as contributions, as
invited talks in the proceedings of international conferences, have already been published.
I consider this a remarkable feat, considering the usual difficulties in this kind of research
activity, in our country.
I should mention that I have been the in-house theorist for the experimental group of
RIBRAS. I participated as an active co-author in all of the RIB publications produced so
far. The last one, which will appear in one of the future (May 2009) AIP conference
proceedings, contains a detailed description of the scientific activities, present and future,
at RIBRAS.
I consider this a very successful leap forward in basic nuclear research in Brazil. I should
mention that the commissioning of RIBRAS in February 2004, occurred during the Jorge
Andre Swieka Summer School in Experimental Nuclear Physics which was held in the
Pelletron Laboratory at the Nuclear Physics Department. The summer school had about
40 students, and besides attending formal lectures given by authorities in the field, such
as James J. Kolata, they had the assignment of participating in collecting the first data on
reactions induced by the exotic two-neutron halo 6He (a Borromean nucleus with none of
the three two-body subsystems bound), produced in the first inaugural run of RIBRAS. All
students participated in this work under the guidance of Alinka Lepine, and James Kolata.
It was indeed a thrilling experience both for the students and professors.
Our RIBRAS is much more modest in scope than bigger labs elsewhere, but it fills an important
gap that big laboratories leave out. The only other laboratory with similar characteristics as
RIBRAS, at Louvain La Neuve in Belgium has just been shut down owing to prioritization policy
by the European Science Foundation which oversees and supplies recommendations about
experimental nuclear facilities in Europe. The group in Belgium are encouraged to be a user
group to perform experiments in RIB physics at GANIL in Caen and the GSI in Darmstadt. Thus
we have, with RIBRAS, a unique facility in the world. The Twin- Solenoid facility at Notre Dame,
which is identical to RIBRAS (except for improved and higher intensity of 6He at the latter), uses
a pulsed beam, and thus they could produce other exotic light secondary beams besides 6He,
such as 6He and 8B (considered a one-proton halo). Currently there are attempts being
undertaken to have the primary beam in the Pelletron changed into a pulsed one to enhance the
capability of RIBRAS. I should mention here that in all plenary talks about RIB facilities in the
World, given at international nuclear conferences, a map is shown. Above the equator one sees
black points indicating where RIB facilities are operating or being built ( besides the RIBF, FAIR,
and MSU, there are smaller operating ones in India, China and Italy, and a large one in DubnaRussia). Below the equator, there is only one black point; in São Paulo!. This gives my
experimental collaborators and me personally a great measure of pride and satisfaction as
scientists.
