Volker D. Burkert is a German physicist,academic and researcher. He is a Principal Staff Scientist at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility at Jefferson Lab (JLab) in Newport News,Virginia (USA). He has made major contributions to the design of the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) that made it suitable for high luminosity operation in experiments studying spin-polarized electron scattering.
Geoffrey L. Greene is an American neutron physicist. Greene received his bachelor's degree from Swarthmore College in 1971 and his doctorate from Harvard University in 1974 with Norman Ramsey,a Nobel laureate in physics. There he worked on low-energy (cold) neutrons,which were then first available in intense beams. As a post-doctoral fellow he was at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and the Institut Laue-Langevin. He was an assistant professor at Yale University and then at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). He has held various management positions at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Since 2002,he is a professor at the University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
