Dr. Houssam Salami is an Associate Professor in Physics at Rafik Hariri University, College of Arts and Sciences. He received his Ph.D. from University of Lyon1 (Claude Bernard) – France in 2007, his Master’s degree from Nuclear Institute of Lyon (IPNL) in 2003 and his BS from Lebanese University in 2002.
He was a Postdoctoral Researcher and Lecturer at State University of New York (2007 – 2009). He taught also in France at University of Lyon 1 from 2006 to 2007 as Teaching Assistant (ATER) and in Lebanon as part-timer from 2009 to 2011.
His research work, in the field of High Resolution Spectroscopy, at the University of Lyon under the supervision of Dr. A. Ross, covered Absorption and Laser Induced Fluorescence Techniques, notably using Continuous-Wave Lasers to selectively excite di- and tri-atomic molecules in gas phase, recording the fluorescence on a Fourier Transform Spectrometer. He optimized the analysis of his data, notably in collaboration with Professor R. Le Roy at Waterloo. His particular specialty led him to continue his academic career at State University of New York at Stony Brook with Professor Thomas Bergeman, where he has been investigating more complex cases of mixing between molecular potential energy curves.
