Johnson's research focus is in superstring theory and particle physics, specifically related to strongly coupled phenomena. [5] [6] He has previously worked at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara, the Institute for Advanced Study, Durham University and Princeton University as a postdoctoral ...
The graduate program was ranked fifth (or sixth, depending on which method used) among physics program in the 2011 study by the National Research Council. [10] U.S. News & World Report ranked the graduate program tenth in the country across all subfields, third in Condensed Matter Physics, fifth in Quantum Physics, eighth in Elementary Particles/Field/String Theory, and ninth in Cosmology ...
She is now professor at University of California, Santa Barbara. Marchetti was appointed co lead-editor of the journal Physical Review X (PRX), a journal run by the American Physical Society (APS) in 2016. [5] She leads the journal with Jean-Michel Raimond, a professor of physics at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris, France.
Carlson was appointed to the faculty at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1990. She works on the fundamental theory and applications of complex systems. [4] [5] She was awarded a David and Lucile Packard Foundation fellowship in 1993, which allowed her to study the physical and mathematical principles that underlie complexity. [6]
A Marshall Scholar at Birmingham, his thesis advisor was Rudolf Peierls. After receiving his doctorate, he began his career in the physics department at the Carnegie Institute of Technology (which later became Carnegie Mellon University), where he would stay until 1982. He then joined UCSB's Institute for Theoretical Physics as professor ...
From 2011 to 2014, he was a Pappalardo Fellow in experimental condensed matter physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). [3] Following his postdoctoral fellowship at MIT, he was a visiting scientist at the Weizmann Institute of Science. [2] Young joined the faculty at University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) in 2015.
Blaes served as chair of the UCSB physics department from July 1, 2010, to June 30, 2013. [1] His research focuses on theoretical astrophysics (X- and gamma-ray astronomy) and compact objects (white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes). Much of his work in astrophysics focuses on the physics of accretion on black holes. [2]
In 2010, Bleszynski Jayich joined the physics faculty of University of California, Santa Barbara. [8] The Jayich Lab is the Quantum Sensing and Imaging Group at UCSB, specializing in quantum effects on the nanoscale. Of particular interest to the Jayich Lab is the nanoscale imaging of spin and charge in condensed matter systems.
