Education:

Ph.D. Physics, Louisiana State University

Research Interests:

My group performs theoretical and computational research in atomic, molecular, condensed matter, and plasma physics. We are interested in bound-state and continuum processes describing electron collisions with atoms and molecules, atomic ion collisions with atoms and molecules, and single photon and laser interactions with atoms and molecules. In particular, we are interested in laser quantum control of atoms and molecules for remote sensing of nuclides, explosives, and drugs.
