MURIEL, AMADOR C.
Ph. D. Physics
• B.S., University of the Philippines, 1959
• M.A., State University of New York, 1965
• Ph. D., State University of New York at Stony Brook, 1967
Born: November 24, 1939
Year elected as Academician (Corresponding Member): 2003
In recognition of his significant works and outstanding contributions to the field of theoretical physics, in particular, his development of theoretical tools to explain turbulence. His new kinetic equation is useful for exploring fundamental problems of non- equilibrium statistical mechanics.
In his researches on stellar dynamics, he has proven analytically that self-gravitation alone is sufficient to produce a hierarchy of structures in one dimension. Dr. Muriel discovered the exact and approximate solutions for the behavior of a two-level system, which were considered by his peers as a pioneering contribution to a quantum Turing machine, now a growing field in quantum computing.
Besides his contributions to the country, Dr. Muriel has also significantly contributed to the development of theoretical physics in the country. He has selflessly spent his own time and resources in training many undergraduate and graduate students and researches at several universities in the Philippines
