Johann Rafelski (rafelski@physics.arizona.edu): Exploration of quark-gluon plasma formed at RHIC and in the early universe; strongly interacting probes (strange and charmed particles) for the study of this deconfined phase of QCD; structure of the QCD vacuum and of relativistic quantum transport theory, collective Higgs production, UHE cosmic rays.
Ina Sarcevic (ina@physics.arizona.edu): Study of the ultrahigh energy neutrino interactions of relevance to the detection of active galactic nuclei and of dark matter candidates; particle production mechanism in astrophysical point sources; neutrino oscillations.
Mike Scadron (Emeritus) (scadron@physics.arizona.edu): Linear sigma model and nonperturbative QCD in strong interactions, generalized linear sigma model and current algebra for nonleptonic weak interactions, extension to CP violation, charge symmetry violation for EM interactions in particle and nuclear physics.
Shufang Su (shufang@physics.arizona.edu): I work on new ideas beyond the standard model. Current research interests include the phenomenology of low energy supersymmetric models; collider searches of new particles; studies on the Higgs sector and how to distinguish various supersymmetry breaking scenarios using the precision measurements of Higgs mass and couplings; electroweak precision measurements and indirect searches of new physics; and particle cosmology.
Robert Thews (Emeritus) (thews@physics.arizona.edu): QCD phenomenology in high energy hadronic interactions, spin structure of amplitudes and model-independent techniques to probe physics at the partonic level; wavelet transforms to extract space-time signals from data containing multiscale information.
Doug Toussaint (doug@physics.arizona.edu): Strong interactions by computer simulations; the use of advanced computers to calculate properties of hadrons from the basic Lagrangian for QCD: including masses of hadrons, glueballs, and hybrid mesons; matrix elements needed to extract fundamental parameters from experiment; and QCD in extreme regimes such as high temperature or high density.
Bira van Kolck (vankolck@physics.arizona.edu): Effective field theories of electroweak and strong interactions, with emphasis on the non-pertubative regime of QCD and the renormalization group for non-relativistic bound states.
