Jonathan Kwolek received the 2014 Physics Department Award. While majoring in physics and math, Kwolek participated in atomic physics research with Dr. Frank Narducci of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, along with Profs. Grossman and Adler. Kwolek’s St. Mary’s Project was on “A Dual Accelerometer Gyroscope Atom Interferometer,” which could help the Navy with inertial navigation. He presented his work at the national conference of the Division of Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics of the American Physical Society in Madison, WI. He is continuing his atomic physics studies in the doctoral program in physics at the University of Connecticut.
