Prof. Partridge joined the Brown faculty in 1986 following post-doctoral research at the University of California, Santa Cruz. He is the recipient of an Outstanding Junior Investigator award from the Department of Energy and an SSC fellowship. Prof. Partridge recently completed a 2-year term as convenor of the DØ top quark analysis group that is studying the properties of the recently discovered top quark. He is also developing a new luminosity monitor for the DØ experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider.
