Jonah Quirk's research focuses on precision atomic physics experiments using atomic cesium, including measurements of energy levels, hyperfine structure, and atomic polarizabilities. A central goal of this work is progress toward measuring the nuclear anapole moment, a subtle effect linked to parity-violating (symmetry-breaking) interactions inside the atomic nucleus. This type of research combines high-precision laser spectroscopy with tests of fundamental physics.
Publication output has been relatively steady over the last decade, with a modest but consistent output averaging under 3 papers per year and no clear long-term growth or decline.
