Welcome to Arie Bodek's home page. This page provides some points of information, links to education related projects, and links to current research.
Prof. Bodek received his B.S. in Physics (1968) from
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his Ph.D. in Physics (1972)
also from MIT. He was a postdoctoral associate at MIT (1972-74) and a Robert
E. Millikan Fellow at Caltech (1974-77). Prof. Bodek joined the University
as an Assistant Professor of Physics in 1977. He was promoted to Associate
Professor in 1980, and to Professor in 1987. Prof. Bodek was appointed
as an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow (1979-81); NSF-JSPS Fellow, KEK, Japan (1986);
and Fellow of the American Physical Society (1985). He served as a project
director at the Department of Energy (1990-91), was Associate Chair of
the Department of Phyics and Astronomy (1995-98), and is on the editorial
board of the European Physics Journal C. He has been serving as Chair of
the Department of Physics and Astronomy since 1999. Professor Bodek was
award the 2004
APS W.KH. Panofsky Prizein Experimental Particle Physics "For his broad,
sustained, and insightful contributions to elucidating the structure of
the nucleon, using a wide variety of probes, tools and methods at many
laboratories."
Bodek is also highly active in physics education, science outreach activities, and in efforts to increase the number of underrepresented groups in science and engineering. He developed the physics department's teaching assistant training program in the 1980's, and co-founded the Pre-College Experience in Physics program for high school girls in 1994. He has also developed several interdisciplinary programs under the Department of Education's GAANN grants for graduate students, as well as two site projects under the NSF's Research Experience for Undergraduates program. One of these includes a component providing Research Experience for High School Teachers, following Bodek's involvement in the department's PARTICLE program for high school teachers. In 1998, he shared the University of Rochester's Goergen Award for Distinguished Contributions to Undergraduate Learning in The College, with Priscilla Auchincloss, Lynne H. Orr, and Connie Jones, for the Women in Science and Engineering Program

Professor Bodek's current research interests are: Physics with W', Z's and Dileptons (CDF); Neutrino Physics (CCFR/NuTeV,MINERvA); Deep Inelastic Scattering and Nucleon Structure ; Quark Distributions in Nuclei. (Jlab JUPITER Program) In the area of instrumetation, Bodek's research is in the area of scintillating tile/optical-fiber hadron calorimeters (CDF and CMS)
Bodek's research group is currently involved in CDF, CMS, and analysis of CCFR/NuTeV and lepton scattering data In CDF, we have constructed and installed the CDF plug upgrade hadron calorimeter. For CMS, we have constructed and are installing the HCAL hadron calorimeter. Both calorimeters are constructed using tile-fiber technology.

Here is a link to the CDF home page. At CDF, our research includes studies of the W asymmetry (and the d and u quark distributions in the proton), search for Z' bosons, search for quark-lepton compositness, production of Z bosons and dileptons (Drell-Yan), construction and instalation of the CDF Plug hadron tile-fiber calorimeter.
Here is a link to the US-CMS home page. At CMS, we are responsible for prototyping and constructing the HCAL tile-fiber barrel calorimeter.
Here is a link to the NuTeV home page. In NuTeV analysis, we are working on the GLS sum rule, neutrino oscillations, structure functions and R.
