"Victor Yakhot"
Bio:

Born in Russia, Yakhot is a 1968 graduate of the Moscow Physics Engineering Institute. While studying for his Ph.D. degree, he was employed as a senior research engineer in the Nuclear Physics Institute of Moscow State University. After receiving his degree in 1971, he says, "I was discharged from work because of application to leave for Israel and was unemployed until December 1972."
A resident of Israel from 1973 to 1985, Yakhot worked as a senior scientist for the Weizmann Institute of Science and as visiting scientist at the Technical University of Munich, the University of Stuttgart, and Princeton
