Biography

Born 13. March 1941. in Mladenovac. General school finished in 1960. in Zagreb. Diploma in Physics in 1965. at the Faculty of Science in Zagreb, Physics department, eksperimental physics. After one year army serving I started to work in 1966. at the Institute of Physics of the University of Zagreb. Postgraduate study in Solid state physics I started in 1967. B.Sc. degree I acquired in 1970. with the work: “Preferred orientaions in aluminium and some aluminium alloys”.(mentor:Prof. dr.sci. A. Bonefačić). The Ph.D.(dr.sci) thesis "Investigation of structural changes of some rapidly quenched alloys during aging”.(mentor: Prof. dr.sci. A. Bonefačić) I defended in July 1979. Starting with 15. November 1968. I am in the Physics department of the Faculty of Science, 10001 Zagreb, P.O.B. 162, Bijenička 32, Croatia. E-mail: kunstelj@phy.hr.
