Theodorus "Theo" Henricus Maria Rasing (born 26 May 1953) is a Dutch professor of experimental physics at Radboud University Nijmegen. His expertise lies in the field of magneto-optics. He was a winner of the 2008 Spinoza Prize.[1]
Career
[edit | edit source]Rasing was born on 26 May 1953 in Didam.[1] In 1976 he obtained a cum laude degree in physics from Radboud University Nijmegen. He obtained his doctorate from the same university in 1982. In 1997 he became professor at Radboud University Nijmegen.[1]
In 2008 he was one of four winners of the Dutch Spinoza Prize and received a 1,5 million euro grant.[2] In 2013 Rasing won a 2,5 million euro Advanced Grant by the European Research Council for a research proposal titled 'magnetisation at its fastest'.[3]
Rasing was elected a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2010.[4] In the same year he was made a Knight of the Order of the Netherlands Lion.[5] Rasing was elected a member of the Academia Europaea in 2013.[6]
