Todd E Sherline

Sample Environment Physicist

Todd Sherline received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Florida in 2006.  While working at the Microkelvin Laboratory at the University of Florida, the Hahn Meitner Institut, Berlin (now Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin), and the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, he studied the antiferromagnetic properties of solid 3He and the frustrated 2-D antiferromagnet Cs2CuBr4.  Todd is an expert in low- and ultra-low temperature techniques and design, and various physical properties measurement methods.  His interests in the sample environment (SE) group lie in further developing the ultra-low temperature SE capabilities, fortifying the reliability of the low-temperature thermometry used in neutron scattering research, developing novel sample environments combining ultra-low temperatures and time-varying magnetic fields, developing diagnostic apparatus for the magnets, and support of user experiments utilizing the suite of low and ultra-low temperature refrigerators and cryomagnets.
