- Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University of California, San Diego
George R. Tynan received his Ph.D. in 1991 from the Department of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Nuclear Engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles. He then spent several years studying the effect of sheared flows on plasma turbulence on experiments located in the Federal Republic of Germany and at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. He then worked in industry developing plasma sources for use in investigating the creation of nano-meter scale semiconductor circuits, and joined the UCSD faculty in 1999. He has published extensively on turbulent transport in magnetically confined fusion plasmas, plasma-material interactions, and basic plasma physics.
