Kasevich and Marcus Receive Awards
Assistant Professor Mark Kasevich was recently selected for
a Terman Fellowship. A leading experimental atomic physicist
in his age group, Kasevich is also the recipient of a Sloan
and two Young Investigator awards. He has developed novel techniques
to manipulate atom deBroglie waves, and applied these techniques
to the construction of high precision atom interferometer-based
inertial sensors. Kasevich has also applied laser cooling techniques
to produce sub microkelvin ensembles of atoms.
Assistant Professor Charles
Marcus, a former recipient of Terman, Sloan, and Young
Investigator awards, added an ASSU Teaching Award to his list
of accolades this year. Marcus was selected by an ASSU committee,
based on a survey of undergraduates throughout the University.
Marcus was lauded for both his enthusiasm and excellent communication
style. Marcus' research concerns the fabrication and low-temperature
measurement of quantum dots and other mesoscopic systems.
