Two Physics Faculty Named APS Fellows -- OSU Physics Department faculty members Dr. Bruce Ackerson and Dr. Steve McKeever were honored as Fellows of the American Physical Society at its March meeting in New Orleans. Ackerson was cited “for theoretical and experimental advances in the physics of colloidal liquids and crystals,” while McKeever, who also serves as vice president of research at OSU, was cited “for major contributions to solid-state radiation dosimetry using thermally and optically stimulated luminescence from wide band-gap insulators, including the development of novel luminescence techniques for radiation measurement.” A total of four physics faculty members from OSU have received this honor in the past four years.
