About Enrique

Enrique Galvez is the Charles A. Dana Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Colgate University, where he has served on the faculty since 1988. He completed his undergraduate studies in physics at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru in 1980, earned a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Notre Dame in 1986, and held a postdoctoral position at Stony Brook University. Throughout his career, Professor Galvez has conducted experimental research in atomic and optical physics. His early work examined ion and atomic beams, the Lamb shift in two-electron ions, and highly excited Rydberg atoms. In recent years, his studies have concentrated on the classical and quantum properties of light, encompassing geometric phases in optics, optical beams in high-order modes, singular optics, photon entanglement, and quantum interference with correlated photons. He has also advanced physics education by developing new undergraduate laboratories and modernizing the introductory physics curriculum at Colgate.
