Dr. Bjoern Schenke (he/him): Season 3 Episode 3
2022/11/08
I am a theoretical nuclear physicist. I like running, painting, photography, fixing things, some gardening, traveling, and electronic music. I work on describing all aspects of heavy ion collisions to learn about the properties of matter, and am also moving toward studying collisions of electrons with nuclei, which can for example provide detailed insight into how gluons arrange and interact inside nuclei. I love research because I just like to figure stuff out and learn new things - doing research is great, because you can figure things out that nobody else has understood before. I am a convener of the QCD Town Hall and White Paper, which provides community input to the Long Range Plan, and I am also on the LRP writing committee.
