Jeff Kuhn
Jeffrey Richard Kuhn, also known as Jeff Kuhn, is an American physicist and astronomer who is a professor of astronomy at the University of Hawaiʻi. He is known for his contributions to astrophysics and the search for extraterrestrial life, particularly in the areas of telescope and detection system development, the study of the Sun and its Stellar corona, corona, and the search for planets around other stars. Education Kuhn received his bachelor's degree in physics and mathematics from Kalamazoo College in 1977, and then earned his master's and doctoral degrees in physics from Princeton University in 1979 and 1981, respectively, under the supervision of Robert H. Dicke, Robert Dicke. Career and research Kuhn has held positions at various universities, including Princeton and Michigan State University, and has served as a visiting professor at several institutions around the world. He joined the Institute for Astronomy (Hawaii), Institute for Astronomy in Honolulu in 1997 and se ...

Physicist
A physicist is a scientist who specializes in the field of physics, which encompasses the interactions of matter and energy at all length and time scales in the physical universe. Physicists generally are interested in the root or ultimate causes of Phenomenon, phenomena, and usually frame their understanding in mathematical terms. They work across a wide range of Physics#Research fields, research fields, spanning all length scales: from atom, sub-atomic and particle physics, through biological physics, to physical cosmology, cosmological length scales encompassing the universe as a whole. The field generally includes two types of physicists: Experimental physics, experimental physicists who specialize in the observation of natural phenomena and the development and analysis of experiments, and Theoretical physics, theoretical physicists who specialize in mathematical modeling of physical systems to rationalize, explain and predict natural phenomena. Physicists can apply their k ...
