Jesus Perez Rios, an assistant professor in the College of Arts and Sciences Department of Physics and Astronomy, has received the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER Award for his project, “Few-Body Processes Including Ions, Atoms and Molecules: From Plasma Physics to Cold Chemistry.”

The award of $667,308 for five years will fund a project that aims to develop a general theoretical framework for treating three-body recombination processes and more general third-order chemical reactions, with applications ranging from cold chemistry to plasma physics, spanning temperatures from near absolute zero to the Sun’s temperature.
