Professor Charles Horowitz is a theoretical nuclear astrophysicist doing research on neutron rich dense matter, neutron star crusts, gravitational waves, neutrino interactions in supernova explosions, and laboratory measurements of nuclear properties important for astrophysics.
Distinguished Professor Alan Kostelecky is a leading authority in the study of Lorentz and CPT symmetries and their potential violations. His work in astrophysics includes publications on the cosmic microwave background, on the timing and polarization of high-energy sources such as active galaxies and gamma-ray bursts, and on astrophysical neutrinos, and it has triggered many new observational studies.
