Ronald D. White

Ronald D. White is a Professor at James Cook University (JCU), known for his extensive research in plasma physics, electron and positron scattering, and computational modeling of charged particle transport. His work spans fundamental studies of electron dynamics in gases and liquids, including applications in organic electronics (e.g., OLEDs) and plasma-liquid interactions. He has collaborated globally, contributing to cross-section databases critical for plasma simulations. His research emphasizes theoretical and computational methods, with a focus on non-equilibrium systems and material interfaces.

Key interests include:

• Electron and positron scattering cross-sections
• Transport phenomena in plasmas and condensed matter
• Organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) performance modeling
• Machine learning applications in plasma diagnostics

Publications highlight contributions to:

• Boltzmann equation solutions for structured materials
• Positron track modeling in biological systems
• Nanostructured organic semiconductor dynamics
• Electron swarm behavior in RF fields

His work bridges fundamental physics and applied technologies, with implications for radiation dosimetry, energy materials, and advanced optoelectronics.
