Nigel ORR

Nigel ORR is a CNRS Research Director and Head of the Nuclear Structure Group 'The Exotics' at the Laboratory of Particle Physics in Caen (LPC Caen). His affiliations include the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and the National Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics (IN2P3). He is based at the National Graduate School of Engineering of Caen.

His educational background includes:

• BSc Hons - University of Queensland (1984)
• PhD - Australian National University (1989)
• HDR - University of Caen-Normandie (2006)

His research specializes in nuclear structure, with emphasis on exotic nuclei and radioactive beams. These areas explore the properties of unstable atomic nuclei, contributing to fundamental physics and applications in nuclear science. His work requires advanced particle accelerators, likely leveraging facilities like GANIL nearby.

He leads the Nuclear Structure Group 'The Exotics' at LPC Caen, located at E24, 6 Boulevard du Maréchal Juin, 14050 CAEN. The lab's resources include experimental equipment for nuclear physics research. For details, visit the laboratory website: http://www.lpc-caen.in2p3.fr/.
