Prof. Robert P Redwine

Professor Redwine's research is in the area of experimental medium energy nuclear physics, especially the study of the structure of protons, neutrons, and light nuclei. The scientific questions have to do with investigating Quantum Chromodynamics (the theory of the strong interaction which holds atomic nuclei together) in the regime corresponding to most existing nuclear matter and with understanding the transition from meson-nucleon degrees of freedom to quark-gluon degrees of freedom. He has also carried out key experiments involving low-energy tests of weak interactions. Professor Redwine's research has been performed at a number of accelerators in the United States, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, and Japan.
