Biography
Dr. Daniel Marble ia professor in the Department of Physics and Engineering .At present, my research interests are in science education, accelerator based atomic physics and the use of accelerators to characterize materials. In the process of my research, I have contained considerable technical experience in computer software and hardware, electronics, as well as vacuum and accelerator technology. I have either installed or made operational five different accelerator systems: two 2.75 MV HVEC Van de Graaff accelerators, one 3 MV NEC Tandem accelerator, one 200 kV Texas Nuclear Cockcroft Walton accelerator, and one 400 kV HVEC Van de Graaff accelerator. Furthermore, I am presently involved in rebuilding a sixth accelerator system (400 kV Van de Graaff accelerator) that I’ve obtained from Jim Lambert at Georgetown University. This accelerator is eventually due to become part of a heavy ion backscattering and a time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis system for the determination of trace near surface impurities in semiconductors.
