My main research areas of interest are elementary particle theory and phenomenology, nuclear physics, and intense field quantum optics. However, I have done research in other areas such as detonation theory and applications, shock wave physics, and dimensional analysis. This, of course, requires mathematical and computational physics and associated computer programs. I am a Fellow of the American Physical Society and my citation reads as follows: "For creating effective programs that attract and educate minority and female physics students and involve historically black colleges and universities in forefront research."
