To hear John Price tell it, his work in experimental physics most resembles the preparation of an Ikea assembly guide. “What I’m trying to do is better understand the structure of the atomic nucleus and its constituents—protons and neutrons,” says Price, professor of physics at CSUDH. “Let’s say you go to Ikea and purchase a proton construction kit. I’m one of the guys writing the book that explains how it gets put together.” Price has spent the better part of two decades pioneering research into how short-lived beams can be used to better map atomic nuclei. It is in acknowledgement of this groundbreaking research that Price has been named the 2023 Excellence in Research, ... Read More
