Wick C. Haxton

Research centers on nuclear and neutrino astrophysics; tests of symmetries and fundamental interactions; and techniques for solving many-body problems. His work has influence our understanding of the solar neutrino problem, the nature of the supernova mechanism, and the origin of neutrino-process elements suchs as flourine. He helped to formulate treatments of double beta decay in a manner consistent with modern gauge theories. Present research interests include the use of effective field theory techniques in nuclear physics.
