Mesoscopic electron transport and atomic gases, a review of Frank W. J. Hekkings scientific work

Frank W. J. Hekking performed his PhD work on Aspects of Electron Transport in Semiconductor Nanostructures at the TU Delft in 1992. He then worked as a postdoc at the University of Karlsruhe, the University of Minnesota, the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, and the Ruhr University at Bochum. In 1999 he joined the LPMMC (Laboratoire de Physique et Mod elisation des Milieux Condens es) in Grenoble and was appointed Professor at the Universit e Joseph Fourier and afterwards Universit e Grenoble Alpes. Frank Hekking was nominated as a member of the Institut Universitaire de France, for the periods 2002-2007 and 2012-2017. This review provides an overview of his scientific contributions to several fields of mesoscopic electron transport and superconductivity as well as atomic gases, and is organized along sections describing the different themes.
