Physics Research Interest

My research over the last several years has been conducted primarily at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab). I began my involvement at Jefferson Lab while I was a post doc at Old Dominion University where I worked on the Region 2 drift chambers for the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer CLAS. Since coming to FIU, I worked on the Møller Polarimeter for Hall B. In terms of physics, I am a co-spokesman on three approved experiments. Two study kaon electroproduction using CLAS and the third is looking for two-photon effects in electron+proton elastic scattering. Strangeness-electroproduction program is part of a larger FIU group effort which includes Dr. Pete Markowitz's kaon-electroproduction experiment in Hall A and Dr. Joerg Reinhold's experiment in Hall C.

In addition to the Jefferson Lab experiments, I have collaborated on the SLAC spin-structure function experiments E143, E154, and E155. I have also done experiments at the Paul Scherrer Institute and the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility where I earned my Ph.D.

For those of you who haven't a clue as to what I was just talking about, I am working on a page that will describe strange-quark electroproduction in regular-people language--or at least as close as I can come given the topic.

Personal Stuff

This site is always undergoing change.

For Fun

Fashion Review
Fashion review? Yes, I am a published fashion reviewer for Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin; one of Germany's largest newspapers. My tongue-in-cheek review can be accessed here. I should acknowledge that I got this opportunity through Jörg Reinhold who's sister is an editor for Süddeutsche Zeitung.

The Physics of Baseball
Here are a few links to some cool sites related to the physics of Baseball. Obviously, very important stuff!
