Eli I. Rosenberg is a Professor of Physics and the Chair of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa.  Dr. Rosenberg serves on the College of  Liberal Arts and Sciences Budget Advisory Group and on Iowa State University Chair's Cabinet. He has served on the Provost's Institutes and Centers Task Force.  Prior to serving as a department chair he had served on the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Representative Assembly and on the Executive Committee of the Representative Assembly. He has served as Chair of the College of Liberals Arts and Sciences Honors Program and as the President of the Iowa State University Phi Beta Kappa Chapter.

 

Dr. Rosenberg is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and was both an Enrico Fermi Postdoctoral Fellow and a U.S. Department of Energy Outstanding Junior Investigator.  His research area is experimental high-energy physics.  He has collaborated on major experiments at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab, Batavia Illinois), the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN, Geneva Switzerland) and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC, Menlo Park California).  He is the author/co-author of over 500 refereed scientific journal    articles.  He is a past chair of the SLAC User's Organization which represents over 1300 U.S and international scientists. He has served as a consultant to the U.S.  Department of Energy in reviewing the high-energy physics programs at Argonne National Laboratory and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

 

Dr. Rosenberg is the principle investigator on the U.S Department of Energy grant which funds all research in high-energy physics at Iowa State University including accelerator based experimental work, theoretical work and particle astrophysics.  Funding for this grant is over $1 million per year.  His research at Iowa State has been continuously funded by the U.S. Department of Energy since 1979.  He is currently working on the BaBar experiment at SLAC's PEP-II Asymmetric B-factory and preparing for the ATLAS experiment which will take data at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). He has supervised the thesis work of six Ph.D. recipients and four Master's degree recipients.  He has directed the activities of six postdoctoral fellows.  He has taught courses on both the undergraduate and graduate levels.
