Amnon Aharony (Hebrew: אמנון אהרוני; born: 7 January 1943) is an Israeli Professor (Emeritus) of Physics in the School of Physics and Astronomy at Tel Aviv University, Israel and in the Physics Department of Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Israel. After years of research on statistical physics (critical phenomena, random systems, fractals, percolation), his current research focuses on condensed matter theory, especially in mesoscopic physics and spintronics.[1] He is a member of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities,[2] a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences[3] and of several other academies. He also received several prizes, including the Rothschild Prize in Physical Sciences,[4][5] and the Gunnar Randers Research Prize, awarded every other year by the King of Norway.[6][7]
