Education Research


Education:

A.B. 1952, A.M. 1953, Ph.D. 1957, Geology, Harvard University


Research Interests:

My research has been mostly in the area of radioactivity in the environment. In recent times projects have included measuring radon exposures of individuals and neutron exposures at ground zero at the time of the Hiroshima bombing. These studies make use of damage tracks that are made by charged particles and revealed by holes that can be etched along the damaged regions created by particles.


The Department mourns the loss of Professor Robert Fleischer who passed away on March 3, 2011
