Daniel Costantino

Daniel Costantino is a Teaching Professor of Physics at The Pennsylvania State University, affiliated with the Department of Physics within the Eberly College of Science. His academic background includes a B.S. in Physics (Summa Cum Laude) from The College of New Jersey (2004) and a Ph.D. in Physics from Pennsylvania State University (2009).

His research focuses on granular matter physics, particularly investigating drag forces in reduced-gravity environments and the dynamics of movement through granular media. This work bridges classical mechanics, material science, and space physics applications.

Publications highlight studies on granular drag dynamics and low-velocity interactions in low-gravity conditions, contributing to foundational understanding of particle systems under varied physical constraints.

No scientific awards are explicitly listed, though his contributions to physics education and research are notable. He is involved in teaching and curriculum development, with no documented advisees listed here. His professional address is at 123 Osmond Lab, and he is affiliated with both Osmond Lab and Davey Lab facilities.
