Mioara Mugur-Schächter

Mioara Mugur-Schächter is a French physicist of Romanian origin, a specialist in quantum physics and epistemology.

Biography

Born in Romania, she arrived in France in 1962 from Bucharest. Her PhD thesis, of which the whole content had been elaborated beforehand in Bucharest and sent to Louis de Broglie, was published in a volume prefaced by de Broglie and published in the collection "Les grands problèmes des sciences", Gauthiers Villars, Paris, 1964.

She became a professor of theoretical physics at the University of Reims Champagne-Ardenne, where she founded the Laboratory for Quantum Mechanics and Information Structure, which she directed until 1997.
