Krister Shalm

Krister Shalm is an experimental quantum physicist working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology since 2012. His research focuses on studying the fundamental properties of light to develop new quantum technologies. He received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Toronto in 2010 and subsequently performed postdoctoral work at the Institute for Quantum Computing in Waterloo, Canada. Krister's work on entanglement has received widespread international recognition. When Krister isn't in the lab or sharing his love of science, he can be found swing dancing.

A little enjoyment is always important. I recently read a blog post entitled 15 Facts That Will Make You Laugh. A few of those facts are: There is a Welch town

Alexander Kramida

Alexander Kramida is interested in the analysis of spectra of neutral and ionized atoms and is active in the critical compilation of atomic spectral data for NIST's atomic spectroscopy databases. He is currently involved in evaluation of energy levels, wavelengths, and transition probabilities in several spectra of atoms and atomic ions and critical evaluation of experimental and theoretical ionization energies of all stages of ionization of all chemical elements. Utilizing his knowledge of computer programming, he assists in support of the online databases on atomic spectra.
