It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of Professor Chang-Xuan Yu. He was a person of a great human, a trusted friend and mentor, and professional value for many scientists and students. He was a leader in our international research community who will always be remembered. I was impressed by his dedication to research, depth of knowledge, and enthusiasm to young researchers. Inventive, modest, and rigorous, he remains an eminent role model for all of us. His impact on the fields of turbulence and transport in magnetically confined plasmas, nonlinear dynamics of laboratory plasmas and high temperature plasma diagnostic will continue to be felt many years from now.
I have been planning to visit him next week in Hefei as I promised in April during a phone call. It was a big blow to know his sudden death. Good people always pass away like that. Please convey my condolences to the bereaved family and to his associates.
May his eternal soul live in peace.(发给刘万东)
