Eva Andrei
Israeli American condensed matter physicist
Eva Yocheved Andrei is an American condensed matter physicist, a Distinguished Professor, and a Board of Governors Professor at Rutgers University. Her research focuses on emergent properties of matter arising from the collective behavior of many particles, especially low-dimensional phenomena under low temperatures and high magnetic fields.
Education and training
Andrei was born in Bucharest, Romania. She received her bachelor's degree in physics from Tel Aviv University in Israel and her Ph.D. in physics from Rutgers University in the United States. After receiving her education, she worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Bell Labs, Murray Hill NJ, and CEA Paris-Saclay.
Career
Andrei began her independent career in 1987 as an assistant professor at Rutgers. One of her first major contributions was establishing the existence of a Wigner solid in a 2D electron plasma. More recently she has made major contributions to the study of graphene, including the detection of ballistic transport of charge carriers and the observation of Van Hove singularity in twisted bilayer graphene. Andrei's discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect in graphene was one of Science magazine's top ten discoveries for the year 2009. Through studying moiré patterns in twisted sheets of graphene, Andrei observed the alignment of electrons which could facilitate the use of graphene in supercomputers.
“Eva Andrei” enters the record as israeli American condensed matter physicist. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Andrei, Israeli and American can confirm, complicate or overturn.
Why this record matters
“Eva Andrei” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Andrei, Israeli and American provides the most credible route into that argument.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q29469870. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1987 and 2009.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
