My field of research is experimental nuclear physics. Among other topics, I have studied pion-nucleus total cross sections, pionic atoms, anomalous alpha scattering from medium-weight nuclei, forward dispersion relations in proton-nucleus elastic scattering, nucleon-nucleus elastic scattering and reactions at intermediate energies, effective NN interaction and nuclear matter density, neutral decay modes of the proton-antiproton system at rest,pion production from nuclei and in pp and pd collisions, and few-nucleon bremsstrahlung and capture reactions. In many cases, the emphasis was on the polarization observables of these reactions.
On a technical level, I have experience with all nuclear detection techniques, including the manufacture of lithium-drifted silicon detectors, developing photon-imaging detector for use in nuclear medicine, designing and building liquid hydrogen and superfluid helium targets, and developping a wide range of new technology for experiments with internal targets in cooled, stored beams.
