As a part of an NSF-funded STEM project in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, Prof. Joe Natowitz from TAMU College Station will present a lecture on "Heavy element searches through fusion and alternative reactions " in Science 103 from 9:30-10:45am. He will also have an informal chat with NSF scholarship recipients in Chemistry and Physics at Starbucks in the library from 3-4pm.
Prof. Natowitz received his bachelor of science degree in chemistry in 1958 from the
University of Florida, where he was a Winn-Lovett Undergraduate Fellow. He also
obtained a certificate in meteorology in 1959 from the University of California at Los
Angeles. He then served three years as a lieutenant and staff meteorologist in the United
States Air Force prior to earning his doctorate in nuclear chemistry in 1965 from the
University of Pittsburgh. He was a postdoctoral fellow at the State University of New York
(SUNY) at Stony Brook from 1965-67 before joining Texas A&M University.
Before becoming an emeritus Distinguished Professor, Joe was the inaugural holder of
the Bright Chair in Nuclear Science and a Distinguished Professor at Texas A&M
University. He served as Head of the Department of Chemistry from 1982-85 and Director
of the Cyclotron Institute from 1991 through 2002. He is recognized as one of the world's
most prominent nuclear chemists and a leading expert in the field of nuclear reaction
dynamics and properties of hot nuclei. His research has been recognized internationally
by being elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society (1981), a Fellow of the
American Chemistry Society (2010), awarded the American Chemical Society’s Award in
Nuclear Chemistry (1995) and Southwest Regional Award (2000), as well as an Alexander
von Humboldt Senior Scientist Award (1978) and an Association of Former Students
Research award from Texas A&M University (1988).
