Profile

College / Department

Teaching areas

At AUS, I taught the Preparatory Physics (PHY 001), General Physics I (PHY 101), General Physics II (PHY 102), and Physics for Architects (PHY 104), and General Physics III (PHY106) . At Auburn University (AU), USA, I taught Engineering Physics I (PHYS 1600) and Engineering Physics II (PHYS 1610), recitations and laboratory courses. At Western Michigan University (WMU), USA, I taught University Physics I Laboratory (PHYS 2050). At Cairo University, Egypt, I taught laboratory for Electronics and General Physics I.

Research areas

My research focuses on studying atomic physics collision problems related to fusion and astrophysics applications. I study electron-ion recombination, electron impact ionization as well as single and double photoionization. In my calculations, I use many state-of-the-art codes such as AUTOSTRUCTURE code, R-matrix and Time-dependent Close coupling methods.

Dr. Shahin Ahmed Abdel Naby

Assistant Professor

PhD, Western Michigan University, United States

Shahin Abdel Naby taught many introductory physics and laboratory courses at Cairo University, Western Michigan University and Auburn University. He uses many effective teaching styles to keep his students interested in physics. Prior to joining AUS, he worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at Auburn University. His research field is theoretical atomic physics in support of many experiments such as CRYRING, the Free-Electron Laser (FLASH) and Elettra. He has published many peer-reviewed articles in the American Physical Society and the Institute of Physics. He gave many invited talks and submitted many abstracts at international conferences.
