THE NEVER-TIRED APOLLONIAN PETRE T. FRANGOPOL, MY DEAR FRIEND PETRACHE

Abstract

Writing a short tribute in memoriam of such a multi-faceted intellectual and real polymath as Petre T. Frangopol is a fairly intimidating endeavor when one wishes to properly evoke a scholar activity that spanned over six decades, covered a spectrum of scientific domains ranging from chemistry to archeology and tackled multiple science - and education - related aspects of the Romanian societal life. Beyond his initial professional activity in organic physical-chemistry and radiochemistry, Dr. Frangopol extended his activity in the decade of eighties to biophysical chemistry and biophysics. He and his team from the Institute of Atomic Physics in Măgurele have contributed, in those years, to several notable studies published in major international journals.
