Barrett N. Rogers

Barrett N. Rogers is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Dartmouth College, holding the Pat and John Rosenwald Chair. He has been at Dartmouth since 2001 and focuses on theoretical and computational plasma physics, particularly magnetic reconnection, gyrokinetic simulations, and plasma turbulence.

Education:

• A.B. from Dartmouth College
• M.S. from Thayer School of Engineering, Dartmouth
• Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from MIT

Research Interests:
His work explores closed field-line geometry, magnetic reconnection, and turbulence in space and laboratory plasmas. He employs advanced gyrokinetic simulations to study plasma behavior in fusion devices and natural systems.

Scientific Awards:

• Fellow of the American Physical Society
• Fusion Energy Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT

Academic Affiliations:
Previously served as a Research Scientist at the University of Maryland and as a Fusion Energy Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT.
