Carlos A. Bertulani is a Brazilian and American theoretical physicist and professor at the department of physics of the Texas A&M University-Commerce.

The excitation of multiple dipole resonances were verified in experiments at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI), Germany.

This method is now used in several nuclear accelerators worldwide to extract information on radiative capture processes in stars, which often cannot be measured directly.

[5] He was a recipient of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation fellowship in 2000-2001,[6] an APS Fellow in 2012 [7] and the Fulbright Scholarship in 2014.

[8] Bertulani has taught more than 75 courses at the undergraduate and graduate level at universities in Brazil, United States and Germany.
