Dr. David L. Hornidge
P.Phys.Associate Professor
Research:
My field of research is experimental subatomic (a.k.a. nuclear) physics, whose goal is to obtain information on the strong and weak nuclear forces. To this end, we carry out experiments at low- and intermediate-energy nuclear physics laboratories. In the past we have participated in measurements at the now defunct Saskatchewan Accelerator Laboratory (SAL) in Saskatoon (which is now the Canadian Light Source), and Maxlab in Lund, Sweden. For the present and near future, we will continue working with the A2 Collaboration at the Mainzer Mikrotron (MAMI) in Mainz, Germany, but in the longer term, we intend to get involved with two other Canadian groups conducting investigations at JLAB in Newport News, Virginia.
