Tibor Hoffmann

Between 1945 and 1947, he was an assistant professor at the Physics Institute of the József Nádor University of Technology and Economics, and then an assistant professor until 1949. Between 1949 and 1952, he was a theoretical advisor at the United Bulb Research Laboratory. Between 1952 and 1965, he was the head of the Computer Engineering Department of the Chemical Industry Association, while working as a second-year student at the Solid State Physics Department of the Central Physical Research Institute (KFKI) of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, where he achieved remarkable results.

As a retiree, he plays a significant role in the domestic dissemination of computers in the National Technical Development Committee (OMFB).

He achieved fundamentally new results internationally in the field of further developing the theory of melting of monovalent metals and exploring new relationships. His theoretical novelty was later extensively used in communications technology and the catalytic chemical industry.

In 1952, for his activities up to that point, he received the title of Candidate of Physical Sciences. He was the first Hungarian physicist to defend his Doctor of Science title in 1956.

Founding board member and deputy secretary general of the Eötvös Loránd Physical Society since 1952. Founding board member of the Hungarian Biophysical Society.

His awards include the Schmid Rezső Award (1950); the Academy Award (1965); and the Eötvös Plaque (1979).
