His current interests are three-fold: 1. Using phenomenological models to produce very accurate multi-phase equations of state for materials such as actinides, hydrogen, carbon, beryllium, etc. 2. Investigating the physics of dense, highly collisional plasmas using molecular dynamics and kinetic equations, and 3. Employing ASC multi-physics continuum codes to analyze and design high energy density physics experiments.
