Pascal Elleaume (1956–2011) was a French physicist and a pioneer in the field of synchrotron light sources,[1] where his work, an insertion device[2] was pivotal. He died in 2011.[3]
Education and career[]
Elleaume studied at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris, France, where he completed his PhD on turbulence in Helium and obtained his agrégation in 1978.[citation needed] After completing his PhD, he became a visiting scholar at Berkeley for a year, then joined the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), where he started working on Free-electron lasers with Yves Petroff. He joined the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in 1986,[4] where he became the director of the accelerator division.
