College of Natural and Behavioral Sciences

Ken Ganezer and Jim Hill, professors of physics, and physics lecturers Brandon Hartfiel and William Kieg were co-authors on a study “Search for n−n(bar) osscillation in Super-Kamiokande” published in Physical Review D, 91 (7), 2015, that is based on years of research that they, approximately 20 of their students, and a collaboration of scientist throughout the world conducted at the Super-Kamiokande facility in Japan. The results of the study increased the lower limits of the lifetimes of neutron oscillations by factors of 3-4, which could have implications on the continued search for neutron oscillations and should help those who are working on finding the theory of everything.


Expert Quotes

Recent quotes and/or media interviews in the media from faculty

“In order for it to be an addiction, the person has to be deriving some pleasure from it. Most people we study don’t appear to check their phones and feel good about it — they check every 15 minutes or less because they don’t want to miss out on something, which is anxiety-based.” — Larry Rosen, professor of psychology, quoted in “Can you really be addicted to your cell phone?” (Cosmpolitan.com, May 4, 2015).

“Men get a visceral experience from watching MMA. It is like watching the gladiators, and maybe it is because they are not fighters themselves.” — Nancy Cheever, associate professor of communications, quoted in “‘Something in us likes violence’: Why a professor (and others) would climb into a mixed martial arts cage” (National Post, April 18, 2015).

“Cuba today is comparable to India when their software export industry was starting — both had a lot of smart, trained programmers, but they were working with old technology and had poor Internet connectivity.” — Larry Press, professor of information systems, quoted in “Starting up in Cuba, but not connected” (The Washington Post, April 15, 2015).
