Ephraim has authored 400+ publications (patents, technical papers, book chapters, books), presented numerous keynote and invited talks worldwide, and received many professional awards, including 1996 Bell Laboratories Distinguished Member of Technical Staff (DMTS) Award (for developing effective methods for predicting the reliability of complex structures used in AT&T and Lucent Technologies products), and 2004 ASME Worcester Read Warner Medal (for outstanding contributions to the permanent literature of engineering and laying the foundation of a new discipline “Structural Analysis of Electronic Systems”). Ephraim is the third “Russian American”, after S. Timoshenko and I. Sikorsky, who received this prestigious award. This year he received the 2019 IEEE Electronic Packaging Society (EPS) Field award for seminal contributions to mechanical reliability engineering and modeling of electronic and photonic packages and systems and Int. Microelectronic Packaging Society’s (IMAPS) Lifetime Achievement award for making exceptional, visible, and sustained impact on the microelectronics packaging industry and technology.

Specialist in the field of physical chemistry of low-pressure non-equilibrium plasma. Supervises the work of a research group that is engaged in experimental research and modeling of physicochemical processes in non-equilibrium plasma in oxygen, air, oxygen-nitrogen mixtures and some other gases, as well as in studying the processes of interaction of active plasma particles with polymers (polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene terephthalate) , polyimides) and materials based on them, including textile materials. The work is aimed at creating methods for predicting the results of plasma exposure to the surface of polymeric materials.

The research is supported by various grants, including grants from the Russian Federal Property Fund, INCO COPERNICUS and some others. The work is carried out in collaboration with foreign colleagues, in particular, with Charles University (Czech Republic), University named after Pierre and Marie Curie (France), Chungnam National University (Korea).

Nikolaos K. Spyrou is Professor of Astronomy at the Aristoteleion University of Thessaloniki, Greece, retired since 2011. He has taught extensively at both the under graduate and post graduated levels, conducted research work and lectured in many universities and research centers in Greece and abroad, and, also, served in many national and international administrational-scientific posts. His books and research articles belong to General Relativity Theory, Fluids, Gravitational Astrophysics, Environnemental Physis (and, secondarily, Space Physics, History of Astronomy, and Science Education), and, recently, Relativistic Cosmology combined with Thermodynamics for the polytropic Universe and its radical consequences and predictions.

Vladimir V. Rumyantsev is Head of Department of Theory of Complex Systems Dynamic Properties at A.A. Galkin Donetsk Institute for Physics and Engineering (DonIPE). He is Professor of Theoretical Physics and Nanotechnology Department at Donetsk National University (DonNU). He received PhD in Theoretical Physics (1988) from DonNU and Dr. Sci. in Condensed Matter Physics (2007) from DonIPE. Prof. Rumyantsev has authored/co-authored 4 books, 2 chapters in books and more than 270 scientific publications. He is a member of the American Physical Society as well as Mediterranean Institute of Fundamental Physics (MIFP, Italy) and Editor-in-Chiff of Journal of Photonic Materials and Technology (Science PG, USA).

Current research interests include various aspects of solid state physics, crystallooptics, photonics; more particularly - theoretical study of the effects of disorder in quasi-two- dimensional nanofilms and layered structures caused by the propagation of electromagnetic and acoustic excitations, photonics of imperfect structures and dispersion of electromagnetic excitations in non-ideal lattices of coupled microcavities containing quantum dots.

Silvia Carlotto is a Researcher at the University of Padua, Italy. She started her PhD research activity in the Theoretical Chemistry Group at the same university with a thesis devoted to the modeling of dynamic solvation effects. After her PhD, she participated as Postdoc in several national and international projects about the simulation of non-linear optical properties of multipolar chromophores in solution; the development of computational methods for micro fluidic devices and the theoretical study of the next generation, cost efficient, automotive catalysis in particular and the modeling of the catalytic properties of pure and doped perovskites. During the past years, she has worked on the simulation of X-ray absorption and photoemission spectra (K- and L-edges) of isolated and supported (Fe and FeO2- phthalocyanine) systems to gain insights into their occupied and unoccupied electronic structures.
