Investigating Nuclei and Nuclear Matter Under Extreme Conditions
In the Nuclear Chemistry group we investigate nuclei and nuclear matter under extreme conditions of temperature, pressure, shape, and neutron-to-proton ratio. Our interests range from understanding the formation of the elements in supernova explosions to the properties of neutron star crusts and X-ray superbursts. In order to understand these phenomena we develop cutting edge detectors and electronics which we utilize at radioactive beam facilities both in the U.S. and abroad.
