Peter Morse is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Seton Hall University's Department of Physics. He joined the faculty in 2024 after completing postdoctoral research at Syracuse University, Duke University, and Princeton University. His research focuses on computational and theoretical soft matter physics, particularly the interplay between geometry, dynamics, and thermodynamics in disordered systems.
Education: PhD in Physics from the University of Oregon (2016), MS in Physics from the University of Oregon (2010), and dual BS degrees in Applied and Computational Mathematical Sciences and Physics from the University of Washington (2008).
Research interests include glass and jamming transitions, hyperuniformity, packing problems, and the development of computational tools for high-performance simulations. His lab emphasizes Python and C++ programming, with a focus on optimizing algorithms for studying material memory and rheology.
Recent work highlights the dynamics of glass formers, hyperuniform point patterns, and computational modeling of soft matter systems. Articles frequently explore structural dynamics in high dimensions and the interplay between geometry and material properties.
Students in his lab gain expertise in HPC cluster usage and algorithm development for analyzing disordered systems. Current projects include optimizing code for stealthy hyperuniform systems and studying jamming transitions in minimally structured glass formers.
