Alexander V. Voronel has been professor
of physics at Tel Aviv University since
1973. He received his advanced degrees
in Kharkov and Moscow. While working at
the Institute of Physical and
Technological Measurements in Moscow in
the early 1960s, Voronel and his
colleagues demonstrated that even
classical liquids like argon, oxygen,
and nitrogen could exhibit strong
divergences in their specific heats
near the critical point. This work gave
experimental endorsement to the growing
conviction that mean field theories
were inadequate to explain a wide range
of critical phenomena.
