RF spectroscopy, g factor measurements, low energy electron atom collisions
Biography
Dr. Davis received B.S. and Ph.D degrees in physics at the University of New Hampshire, Durham, NH. His research covered areas of r f spectroscopy of atoms, g factor measurements, and low energy electron atom collisions.
Dr. Davis joined the staff at PSI in February 1985 after having spent 11 years at Kirtland Air Force Base, NM where he served as section chief of the New Laser Concepts Section. He was codeveloper of a laser induced fluorescence technique for visualizing supersonic reactive flowfields in chemical lasers. He also was codeveloper of an ultra sensitive small signal gain measurement technique for use on potential laser systems.
Since joining PSI, Dr. Davis has been involved in the development of novel laser applications for combustion, environmental, and medical research including cancer therapy. He also has been very active in science education, especially for young students (K-12). He is a fellow of SPIE.
