On June 8, the researcher Carlos Hernández García received the Young Scientist Prize In Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics 2021 awarded by the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) for his:
“…outstanding contributions to the theory and modeling of laser-driven high harmonic generation (HHG), both in high photon energy regimes, and in understanding how to manipulate the HHG waveforms to impart orbital and spin photon angular momentum, combining quantum simulations with laser Physics.”
You can read the press release published by iUPAP in this link and see the video that Carlos Hernández has recorded for the University of Salamanca where he talks about the main lines of research and activities of the Laser and Photonics Applications group, about the Attostructura project (ERC 851201) and the recent discoveries that have earned it this recognition.
Congratulations Carlos!
