J. C. Seamus Davis

Field: Physics
Packard Fellowship award year: 1994

Research Interests

My general research interests are in the use of experimental techniques of ultra-low temperature physics to address physics questions of fundamental significance. These include macroscopic quantum physics of superfluid 3He, physics of two dimensional superfluid 3He, and atomic scale STM study of exotic superconductors and nanostructures.

Bjorn Poonen

Field: Mathematics
Packard Fellowship award year: 1998

Research Interests

Bjorn Poonen researches number theory and arithmetic geometry. He states that there is a wide gap between theory and practice in the disciplines of number theory and arithmetic geometry. A common thread in his work is to take ideas that previously have been useful in theory, and to transform them into methods that can be used to solve down-to-earth problems. For example, in the past, he has proved results on random packing, with applications to communications networks.
