Dr. Edward Ackad of the Physics Department has received a Award in tandem with the Information Technology Services (ITS).
Although Dr. Ackad is working on the grant, the NSF Award is not being used fund Dr. Ackad’s personal research. The award itself is being used to build Internet infrastructure. Internet 2 is a high-speed link […]

Physics professors Mohammad Yousef and Edward Ackad
Physics professors Mohammad Yousef and Edward Ackad developed a method to predict the behavior of the Egyptian strain of hepatitis C virus, which has no known cure.
By studying the American genotype, they built a 3-D structural model that could lead to advances in medicine and, ultimately, a cure. Their […]
Four years of research across two universities resulted in physics professor Edward Ackad finding support for one of two theories regarding recombination effects of the gas Xenon.
Ackad’s research work, “Recombination effects in soft-x-ray cluster interactions at the Xenon giant resonance,” was recently published in the New Journal of Physics and theoretically explores a previously conducted […]
Dr. David Kaplan
Dr. David Kaplan, Associate Professor of Physics, was awarded the 2012 Great Teacher Award. The award, founded by the SIUE Alumni Association in 1970, acknowledges instructors who display exceptional teaching skills and who guide and inspire students to lead successful careers and lives.
Kaplan, in his passion for his content and for helping students, […]
Edgar Rueda from the University of Antioquia paid a one month visit to SIUE campus to work with Hernando Garcia, associate professor of the SIUE Department of Physics.
An expert in experimental optical physics and optical information processes, Rueda is visiting SIUE to learn about Transient Spectroscopy, a process in which the level of electron excitement […]
Wednesday December 7, a group of SIUE students and faculty gathered around the new observatory for the official ribbon cutting. Special guest and wielder of oversized scissors Neil deGrasse Tyson did the honors after opening remarks from Jeffery Sabby, assistant professor of physics, as well as Aldemaro Romero, dean of SIUE’s College of Arts and Sciences […]
