Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher works in experimental nuclear and particle physics, studying how subatomic particles are produced and behave when high-energy photons or electrons strike protons and light atomic nuclei. Much of the recent work uses facilities at Jefferson Lab to measure production rates ('cross sections') of short-lived particles and to probe the internal structure of nuclei like tritium and helium-3. The work combines experimental measurements with theoretical calculations and computational tools.

After a very high output year in 2017, publication activity dropped and then grew again through 2022–2023, averaging about 9 papers per year over the last five years.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
