Current Research Interests
Christoph Hohenemser received his Ph.D. in nuclear physics in 1963 from Washington
University (St. Louis). He has published over 80 papers in nuclear solid state physics,
with specialization in magnetic critical phenomena, lattice defects and high temperature
superconductivity. His work also has included public policy issues related to nuclear
weapons, nuclear electric power, and a wide range of technological hazards. In 1971 he
was a founder of Clark's pioneering Program on Environmental Science and Policy. He
is a fellow in the American Physical Society (APS) and the Society for Risk Analysis (SRA).
He is a Professor Emeritus of Clark University
as well as a Marsh Distinguished Scientist.
