I study the details of the internal structure of nuclei. Nuclei are the very small cores which are all that is left over when all of the electrons are removed from an atom. Excited nuclei can emit very high energy radiation, called gamma rays. I observe gamma rays using a spectrometer called TIGRESS which lives at TRIUMF in Vancouver, BC.

我研究原子核内部结构的细节。 原子核是非常小的核心，当所有的电子都从原子中被移除时，剩下的就是它了。 受激发的原子核可以发出非常高能量的辐射，称为伽马射线。 我用一个叫TIGRESS的光谱仪观察伽马射线，它位于不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华的TRIUMF。
