Biography

Georges Lochak was born on 12 February 1930 to a Russian family exiled in France due to the Russian Revolution and Russian Civil War.[1] Lochak studied physics and mathematics at the Sorbonne and the Institut Henri Poincaré from 1950 to 1954.[2]

Lochak worked at the Institute Henri Poincaré, the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia) and the Joliot-Curie-Laboratory for Nuclear Physics (University of Paris-Sud). By the time of his retirement in 1996 he was the former director of research at CNRS.[3]

Lochak worked closely with Nobel laureate Louis de Broglie throughout the later part of de Brogile's life and he is currently president of the Fondation Louis-de-Broglie.[4]

Lochak died in Paris on 4 February 2021, at the age of 90.[5][6]
