Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:
Igor Aranson is a staff scientist at the Material Science Division, Argonne National Laboratory, Illinois. Dr. Aranson is a Fellow of American Physical Society, and he is a recipient of Alexander von Humboldt, Wolfson, and Guastello Fellowships. He obtained his Ph.D. in Physics and Mathematics from the Institute of Applied Physics, Academy of Science, Gorky, Russia, for studies of spatio-temporal chaos in non-equilibrium systems. Since then Dr. Aranson worked on a broad variety of topics, from the theory of superconductivity to soft condensed matter, granular physics, and more recently, biophysics. He published more than 140 papers in leading scientific journals, including two influential reviews in the Reviews of Modern Physics, and several book chapters. Dr. Aranson conducts experimental and theoretical studies of pattern formation in granular and biological systems.

Lev Tsimring is a Research Scientist at the University of California, San Diego. He holds a Ph.D. in Physics and Mathematics from the Moscow Institute of Oceanology for his early work in nonlinear theory of internal and surface gravity waves. After that Dr. Tsimring has done pioneering research and published more than a hundred papers in various areas of nonlinear dynamics, pattern formation, nonlinear time series analysis, and, most recently, granular and biological physics.
