Robyn M. Millan
|Professor
Margaret Anne and Edward Leede '49 Distinguished Professorship
Robyn Millan is an experimental physicist specializing in the processes acting on energetic particles in both the atmosphere and in space, and in developing new experimental methods for studying these processes. She has also worked to promote the development of small satellites for space science, and is currently serving as co-chair of the Decadal Survey for Solar and Space Physics. She has undergraduate degrees in Physics and Astronomy from U. C. Berkeley (1995) and a Ph. D. in Physics from U. C. Berkeley (2002). She came to Dartmouth in 2002 as a NASA Spacegrant Visiting Young Scientist and joined the regular faculty in 2005.
