Nuclear Physics and Astrophysics Experiment

The nuclear physics experimental group is actively pursuing a wide range of topics, from studies of the nature of excited nuclear states and relativistic heavy ion collisions to nuclear reactions of importance to nuclear astrophysics. The group includes three Ohio State physics faculty, one emeritus professor, seven physics graduate students, three post-doctoral research associates, and additional students and faculty from other Ohio State departments. It is well supported by the NSF and DOE. Experiments are performed at the following medium energy nuclear research facilities:
