Hiroshi Uechi
Organizing Committee Member (SICMSE - 2019)
Osaka Gakuin University, Japan
He obtained the doctoral degree in nuclear physics (theoretical nuclear and nuclear astrophysics) from Indiana University, USA, under the guidance of Professor Brian D. Serot who founded the nuclear field theory, quantum hadrodynamics (QHD) with Professor John D. Walecka. He is a professor at Osaka Gakuin University, General Education Division.
He has been investigating self-consistent quantum hadronic models and approximations in terms of the concept of thermodynamic consistency, which unifies Landau’s Fermi-liquid theory and density functional theory (DFT) while applying QHD nonlinear and chiral effective models to neutron star calculations. He is working on nonlinear mean-field and chiral mean-field method for nuclear matter, self-consistent Hartree-Fock and other approximations beyond mean-field approximations. Currently, he is working on some topics of Energy Harvesting Technology, Mathematical Biophysics.
