معرفی
Professor Kent Paschke is affiliated with the University of Virginia as a faculty member in the Department of Physics and conducts research at Jefferson Lab (JLab) in Newport News, Virginia. His work focuses on precision measurements of parity-violation in electron scattering, probing the Standard Model of electroweak interactions and the structure of nucleons and nuclei.
- Education: Ph.D., 2001, Carnegie Mellon University
Research Interests: Paschke’s research investigates parity-violation in electron scattering experiments, providing insights into the atomic nucleus and searching for physics beyond the Standard Model. His projects include the Qweak experiment (proton weak charge) and PREX-2/CREX (neutron skins in calcium and lead nuclei).
Recent Trends in Publications: His articles primarily address precision tests of the Standard Model, laser optics for polarized electron beams, and nuclear structure studies via electroweak interactions.
- Scientific Awards:
- Fellow of the American Physical Society
- Advising:
- Advised Ph.D. students including Caryn Palatchi, Allison Zec, Emmanuel Kargiantoulakis, and Donald Jones
Labs & Teams: Paschke leads experiments at JLab and maintains an optics test stand at the University of Virginia. His group includes postdoctoral researchers (e.g., Caryn Palatchi) and graduate students working on parity-violation studies and laser system development.
