Fayyazuddin, also spelled as Fayyaz Uddin (
Quaid-e-Azam University campus National Centre for Physics, Islamabad.[1][2] He is a senior scientist at the National Center for Physics. Fayyaz is doing research in the fields of quantum mechanics, particle physics, and meson physics. He has published numerous physics papers accompanied by Riazuddin and has co-authored Quantum Mechanics by Fayyazuddin and Riazuddin published in 1990.[3][4]
Biography
Fayyazuddin is the twin brother of physicist Riazuddin, and a student of Abdus Salam.[5]
Education
He and his twin brother
Karachi University where he became a physics lecturer.[citation needed
]
After teaching mathematics and physics at Karachi University, Fayyaz traveled to the United Kingdom in 1959. He attended Imperial College London where Abdus Salam and Riazuddin were serving as his teachers. He was awarded a PhD in theoretical particle physics under the fellowship of Abdus Salam in 1962.[1][7] Fayyaz's dissertation was written on the "Preliminary Analysis of Photoproduction of K Mesons in the Mandelstam Representation".[8] Fayyaz then returned to Pakistan and served at the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC).[9]
Academic career
Fayyazuddin joined
Bethe-Bloch theory
. At that time, he published his thesis that sparked a controversy between two sets of experiments.
He undertook postdoctoral research at the
University of Islamabad (now Quaid-i-Azam University), the scientists eagerly returned to Pakistan. Fayyazuddin, Hussain, Arif-uz-Zaman, and Sarwar Razmi, joined the Institute of Physics.[1] The institute become an active center for theoretical particle physics research due to their distinguished contribution, and its presence was recognized internationally.[1]
In 1970, he went to
National Center for Physics as a senior scientist. In 2008, he was awarded HEC Distinguished Professor award by the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan.[2] In 2000, the President of Pakistan, General Pervez Musharraf, conferred on him Pakistan's second-highest civilian award Hilal-i-Imtiaz for his contributions to the field of research in physics and science.[2]
