James Benjamin Rosenzweig is an experimental plasma physicist and a distinguished professor at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). [1] In the field of plasma wakefield acceleration, he is regarded as the father of the non-linear "blowout" interaction regime, where a laser beam, when fired into a plasma at intense levels, expels electrons from the plasma and creates a spherical ...
Saltzberg earned a bachelor's degree in physics in 1989 from Princeton University and a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Chicago in 1994. From 1995 to 1997, he worked at CERN in Switzerland. Saltzberg served as the chair of the UCLA physics and astronomy department from 2018 to 2022. [7]
Zvi Bern (born 17 September 1960) is an American theoretical particle physicist. He is a professor at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).. Bern studied physics and mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and earned his doctorate in 1986 in theoretical physics from the University of California, Berkeley under the supervision of Martin Halpern.
The Enormous Toroidal Plasma Device (ETPD) is an experimental physics device housed at the Basic Plasma Science Facility at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).It previously operated as the Electric Tokamak (ET) between 1999 and 2006 and was noted for being the world's largest tokamak [1] before being decommissioned due to the lack of support and funding.

Chandrashekhar Janardan Joshi (born July 22, 1953, at Wai, Maharashtra, India) is an Indian–American experimental plasma physicist.He is known for his pioneering work in plasma-based particle acceleration techniques for which he won the 2006 James Clerk Maxwell Prize for Plasma Physics [1] and the 2023 Hannes Alfvén Prize (with Pisin Chen and James Rosenzweig).
From 1990 till 1993, he was appointed by the University of Wisconsin-Madison as Assistant Scientist of Radiology and Medical Physics. He then joined David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA in 1993, as an Assistant Professor of Radiology and Psychiatry. He became an Associate Professor in 2000 and a Professor in 2006. [2]
Wright received his ABscl (Physics in 1969) and PhD (Astronomy in 1976) degrees in high-altitude rocket measurement of cosmic microwave background radiation from Harvard University, where he was a junior fellow. After teaching as a tenured associate professor in the MIT Physics Department for a while, Wright has been a professor at UCLA since ...
