Autorinformation
David M. Feldbaum received his Ph.D. in experimental physics from the University of Michigan in 2003, working with trapped atoms. As a postdoctoral researcher, he spent several years at Los Alamos National Laboratory working on trapping radioactive atoms, before joining the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory in Louisiana as a part of the University of Florida research group. He joined the faculty of the Southeastern Louisiana University in 2014.
