The world of physics is saddened by the passing of Mr. Adrian Dafinei, Professor Doctor of Physics at the University of Bucharest – Romania. Professor Dafinei was known for his professionalism, brilliant solutions to all kinds of problems, fairness, modesty, and his tireless desire to help unconditionally.
