Curriculum Vitae Dr. Marcel Toulemonde is a staff Scientist at the CIMAP laboratory in Caen (France), devoted to welcome physicists and chemists who want to use the national accelerator facility (GANIL). Employed by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in France since 1968, he had prepared a PhD in nuclear physics and was awarded as Docteur és-Sciences (PhD, 1974) from Strasbourg University. In 1983, he leaves Strasbourg to Caen in order to create the CIMAP laboratory. Being nominated Director of Research in 1990, the University of Caen recognizes him as Professor. During all these years he manages many experiments submitted by the users of the GANIL facility in atomic and solid states physics (the CIMAP laboratory welcomes around 400 researchers per year since 1995). In 2003 he was nominated Deputy Director of the Research at the engineer school ENSICAEN (Caen, France), covering several domains: nuclear physics, solid states physics, solid chemistry, catalysis, organic chemistry, informatics and instrumentation. Dr. Toulemonde’s research experience covers a range of topics in both theoretical and experimental in nuclear physics, atomic physics and materials science. Since 1983, Dr. Toulemonde has concentrate his researches studying how dense electronic excitation, brought by the slowing down of GeV heavy ions, can induced nanometric transformation of solid and he has develop a model, the inelastic thermal spike model, to predict these nanometric modification whatever the metallic, semiconductor or insulating character of the irradiated materials. During these years M. Toulemonde had spent several months in Switzerland (CERN), in Germany (University of Muenchen and at GSI, Darmstadt) and in Japan. Dr. Toulemonde's notable experience and accomplishment over the years is highlighted by numerous publications, which includes 295 journal articles and 5 peer-reviewed conference papers and participate to 10 chapters in different monographs. He has given 125 presentations at universities, research institutions, scientific conferences and workshops, including 70 invited presentations all around the world..
