I am primarily involved in the operations and improvements of the S800 spectrograph, which is a large acceptance - high resolution device used in reaction studies with radioactive beams.

My research activities are concentrated on the study of nuclei located close to the limit of stability, where new behaviours of nuclear matter are observed. Please refer to my list of publications for futher information.

I am the original author of the LISE code, which has been developped since 1985 to simulate the production of radioactive beams using projectile fragmentation. The code is now under the management of Oleg Tarasov who has ported it to the Windows environment and has added many new features and improvements.

Here are a few links to a few other things I have authored:

• I am the original author of the TreeParameter and TreeVariable classes developed for the NSCL SpecTcl analysis program. Starting with version 3.0, these classes have been incorporated in the default package. For prior versions, the classes can be found here. A complete documentation is located at this link.
• I have written a Tcl/Tk based displayer for the NSCL SpecTcl analysis program called SpecTk. The program and its documentation can be found following this link.
• A simple other Tcl/Tk application I have produced is the NSCL Dumper, which allows inspection of NSCL standard buffers of various types, from either a data stream of a file.
• The S800 utilities package are a set of compiled subroutines necessary to run the S800 and Sweeper SpecTcl versions. The package and instructions on how to install and use it can be found here.

My extra professional interests include playing with my son Julien, playing the piano and giving recitals with my wife Claire, and sailing whenever there is some time left!
