Physics and Astronomy Faculty and Staff
Dr. Hendrickson is the Chair of the Physics & Astronomy Department. He currently teaches the introductory physics courses/labs for both majors and non-majors, but loves teaching across the entire curriculum. He has recently worked with undergraduate students on research projects involving a cloud chamber and an acoustic levitator.

Dr. Rybicki's research focuses on organic electronic and spintronics. Organic electronics examines how carbon-based devices can be used as next-generation sensors, light emitting diodes, and solar cells. Spintronics investigates how the spin of the electron can be used to transmit signals. This provides student collaborators the opportunity to learn how to fabricate, characterize, and model device behavior.

Dr. Weaver is a biophysicist who studies the dynamics and interactions between peptides and lipid membranes. He does this using both experiments and (occasionally) MD simulations. He believes that the best learning takes place outside the lecture and strives to offer multiple pathways for students to demonstrate what they've learned in their courses or in the lab.
Dr. Wolf uses computers to model the lives and deaths of stars. He enjoys teaching topics across the physics and astronomy curriculum with an emphasis on using computation in problem solving and visualization.
