First Guidance Committee Meeting: Time-Reversal Violation Using Pear Shaped Nuclei

This presentation was given to satisfy MSU’s oral examination requirements for acquiring PhD candidacy. In our graduate program, we refer to this as the “First Committee Meeting”. The task is convince your guidance committee that you understand the motivation, background, and context of your own research plan for your dissertation.…

The MSU Cyclotron Lab’s Own Hidden Figure: Prof. Thelma Irene Arnette and “The Bomb”

Professor Thelma Irene Arnette (1920-2017) was the third person hired (the first two were Prof. Henry Blosser and Prof. Morton Gordon) to design the first cyclotron (the “K50”) at Michigan State University around 1960. She would go on to become an Assistant Professor of Physics in 1962 and earned tenure…

Physics Grad School Application “Bootcamp”

It is that time of year when people start applying to graduate school. Some advice, guidance, and insight is given here in a talk I’ll be presenting tonight to MSU students: https://www.dropbox.com/s/r5iqy8w6e2ft05d/2021-09-13-Grad-School-App-Bootcamp-JTS-notes.pdf?dl=0 An important part of the process is requesting letters of recommendation. Some guidance along these lines is given…

Seminar @ Bucknell

Testing Time-Reversal Symmetry Using Lasers, a Magic Room, and Pear-Shaped Nuclei Experimental tests of fundamental symmetries using nuclei and other particles subject to the strong nuclear force have led to the discovery of parity (P) violation and the discovery of charge-parity (CP) violation. It is believed that additional sources of…
