Bio
My research is in computational quantum mechanics of many-body systems. Most of the work is on atomic nuclei, although we also do work on the electronic structure of atoms, atoms in plasmas, cold atoms in a trap, and neutrino astrophysics. Much of our work involves high performance computing at national labs and national super-computing facilities, and many of my students do part of their research at national labs; several have gone on to permanent positions at national labs.
