Curriculum Vitae (postscript file) Publications (postscript file) Invited Talks (postscript file) Computational Experience (postscript file) My major research interests are to understand QCD (Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of Nature's strong interaction) and its role in Nature as a part of Standard Model using various technical tools. My favorite techincal tools include large scale parallel computation, numerical analysis, perturbative QCD, chiral perturbation, and various phenomenological models. Also interested in Supersymmetry phenomenology.
Lattice Gauge Theory Finite Temperature QCD Weak Matrix Element of CP Violation Glueball and Scalar Quarkonia Chiral Perturbation Supersymmetry Computational Physics Very fond of classical piano/clavicord music. An intermediate level tennis player. Read daily the Analects of Confucius, the Great Erudition, the Doctrine of the Mean, the Shoo-king and the Shih Ching. My favorite songs include Yesterday, Let it be, Hotel California, Bridge over troubled water, Boxer, Sound of silence, Love me tender, ... , Circle of life, Music of my heart, Larger than life.
I obtained my undergraduate degree in electronics at the Seoul National University, and my Ph. D. in physics in 1995 from the Columbia University. My thesis advisor was Professor Norman H. Christ. I was a post-doctoral fellow with Dr. Don Weingarten at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center before arriving at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1997. I have been a post-doctoral fellow in the group T-8 (Elementary Particles and Field Theory), working with Dr. Tanmoy Bhattacharya, Dr. Rajan Gupta and Prof. Stephen Sharpe. I also work with Dr. Michael Mattis to understand the SUSY vacuum structure using ADHM instantons. I am married to Youngmi Lee and have two children, Ben and Jeff.
