Bradley M Sherrill

Bradley M Sherrill is a University Distinguished Professor at Michigan State University, specializing in Nuclear Physics and Rare Isotope Production. His research focuses on creating and studying exotic neutron-rich isotopes using in-flight separation techniques at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB).

• Key Research Areas: Nuclear structure, fragmentation reactions, fundamental symmetries, neutron stars, and astrophysical modeling.
• Technological Contributions: Development of fragment separators, LISE++ simulation software, and high-rigidity spectrometers.

Scientific Awards

• Tom W. Bonner Prize in Nuclear Physics (2018)

Applications: Rare isotopes serve as probes for biological/physical processes, support supernova modeling, and enable tests of fundamental symmetry laws. His work bridges nuclear physics with astrophysics and national security.
