Description

Dr. Daniel Mukiibi is a senior lecturer at the Department of Physics, School of Physical Sciences, College of Natural Sciences, Makerere university. He attended his Ordinary level studies at St. Mary’s Secondary School – Namaliga where he obtained a first grade in the national examinations of 2002. He completed his Advanced level certificate at Merryland High School – Entebbe in 2004. He was admitted for a Bachelor of Science degree with Education at Makerere University, which he completed in 2008 with a major in Physics and a minor in Mathematics. He later attended the postgraduate diploma in basic Physics of the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy. He was re-admitted for another postgraduate diploma (Msc. equivalent) in Earth System Physics at ICTP, which he completed in 2013. He completed his doctoral studies in 2016 at the University of Hamburg, Germany. He has since taught undergraduate courses at Makerere University such as; classical mechanics, quantum mechanics and properties of matter. He has also taught mathematical physics at postgraduate level. It is upon this background and experience that the idea of writing thismanuscript was born. His research interests are in computational fluid dynamics and mathematical physics. He is currently supervising postgraduate students working on projects in computational fluid dynamics, solar energy and thin films.

Dr. Annet Eva Zawedde is a lecturer at the Department of Physics, School of Physical Sciences, Makerere University. She started as a teaching assistant in 2009 and has risen through the ranks after attaining her PhD in Space Physics at the University of Bergen, Norway in 2018. She also attained a Masters degree in Space Physics at the University of Bergen, Norway in 2014; and a Bachelor of Science with Education from Makerere University in 2009. She completed the Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education at King’s College, Budo and the Uganda Certificate of Education at Entebbe Secondary School. She has taught several undergraduate course units and supervised both undergraduate and postgraduate students. Her research interests are in Space Physics, in particular the impact of energetic precipitating particles on the atmospheric chemistry.

Dr. Dennis Muyimbwa holds both a masters degree and a PhD from the university of Bergen, Norway attained in 2013 and 2016, respectively. He also holds a bachelors degree – BSc. (Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry) from Makerere University, which he obtained in 2006. He did his Ordinary and Advanced level studies at Kasawo Senior Secondary School in 2000 and 2002, respectively. His research interests are nuclear physics
and optics.
