John Arrington

John Arrington is a nuclear physicist and group leader of Medium-Energy Physics, Physics Division, at the Argonne National Laboratory.[1] He is known for his leading role in a number of important nuclear physics and medium-energy/high-energy experiments at the Argonne and Jefferson National Laboratory Accelerator Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility facilities.[1] He is perhaps one of the most active and most cited young nuclear physicists in the world,[2] with more than 8000 citations to his work and an H-index of 51.

He has been awarded a fellowship of the American Physical Society and was a recipient of U.S. Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineering (awarded in 2005) and APS/DNP Dissertation award in Nuclear Physics (awarded in 2000).[3]

Arrington did his B.S. in applied mathematics, engineering, and physics (with distinction) from University of Wisconsin–Madison followed by a PhD in physics from California Institute of Technology, with advisor Brad Fillipone. His thesis title was Inclusive electron scattering from nuclei at x>1 and high Q^2.[4]
