George Siopsis, Professor of Physics, received a B.Sc. degree in Mathematical Physics from the University of Sussex, England, in 1982. He did his graduate work at the California Institute of Technology, where he received an M.S. (1983) and a Ph.D. (1987) in Physics. After spending four years at Texas A&M University as a Research Associate, he joined the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Tennessee in 1991. His CV is available here.

Mike Guidry is the author of more than 200 journal publications and invited conference presentations, 3 published textbooks, and 3 textbooks in advanced preparation. These address topics in nuclear physics, computational science, advanced educational technology, astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology, general relativity, the mathematics of symmetry in physics, elementary particle physics, relativistic quantum field theory, and condensed matter physics. He has been the lead educational technology developer for a 7 major college textbooks (with multiple editions) in introductory physics, astronomy, biology, genetics, and microbiology, and in projects as diverse as training K-12 teachers to use educational technology effectively and explaining the science behind weapons of mass destruction for emergency first responders. He has developed an online course and conducted workshops in programming modern mobile devices for scientific and educational applications. His primary current research interests lie in development of new algorithms for solving large coupled sets of differential equations in scientific applications, understanding the mechanism for Type Ia supernovae, and developing new many-body techniques for understanding high-temperature superconductors and other strongly-correlated electron systems, and in developing new approaches to quantum Hall physics in graphene. He has won various teaching awards and is responsible for many Web-based and conventional initiatives introducing and explaining science to the public.

Sean Lindsay is an expert at computationally modeling the optical properties (absorption and scattering efficiencies) of cosmic crystalline silicates. His PhD dissertation pioneered modeling the absorption efficiencies for forsterite grains for polyhedral shapes and many grain sizes. These models are now used by a variety of researchers to model the thermal flux of dust in comet comae and asteroid surface environments. His expertise includes: 1) spectroscopic performing mineralogical analyses of small body surfaces using visible, nearand mid-infrared spectroscopic data; and 2) modeling the thermal gradient and mid-infrared emissivity of porous regolith surfaces on airless bodies. His primary research is on determining the mineralogy and relative abundances of dust species for the small bodies of the Solar System (SS) to understand the origins and evolution of the SS small bodies.
