Teaching

This semester I'm teaching Physics 116: Mechanics with Calculus.

Research Interests

My research is in nuclear theory and its application to problems of fundamental importance in particle physics and astrophysics. Topics in this interdisciplinary line of research include

• Double beta decay (and the mass of the neutrino)
• Violation of parity and time-reversal invariance in nuclei
• Neutrino scattering from nuclei (and the solar neutrino problem)
• Nucleosynthesis in stars and supernovae
