Maury C. Goodman
Maury C. Goodman is an American experimental particle physicist at the Argonne National Laboratory. He earned his undergraduate degree at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1972) and his PhD (1979) at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign under the supervision of Albert Wattenberg. He joined Argonne National Laboratory in 1984, and worked on proton decay and neutrino physics. Participated in the MINOS, NOvA and Double Chooz collaborations, and served for seven years as Leader of the ANL-HEP Neutrino Group. He has been Deputy Spokesperson of the LBNE collaboration (2010 to present). When the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment was established in 2015, he was elected the chair of the Institutional Board. He was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2008 for his work in experimental neutrino physics, "especially the initiation of worldwide programs of accelerator long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments and of the new generation of reactor expe ...

Argonne National Laboratory
Argonne National Laboratory is a science and engineering research national laboratory operated by UChicago Argonne LLC for the United States Department of Energy. The facility is located in Lemont, Illinois, outside of Chicago, and is the largest national laboratory by size and scope in the Midwest. Argonne had its beginnings in the Metallurgical Laboratory of the University of Chicago, formed in part to carry out Enrico Fermi's work on nuclear reactors for the Manhattan Project during World War II. After the war, it was designated as the first national laboratory in the United States on July 1, 1946. In the post-war era the lab focused primarily on non-weapon related nuclear physics, designing and building the first power-producing nuclear reactors, helping design the reactors used by the United States' nuclear navy, and a wide variety of similar projects. In 1994, the lab's nuclear mission ended, and today it maintains a broad portfolio in basic science research, e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
