Dr. Peter Kollmann is a physicist who studies space plasma throughout our Solar System using satellite observations and theory. He received his Ph.D. in 2012 and today works at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. He is deeply involved with all of the recent planetary missions to Jupiter and Saturn, and other missions such as Venus Express and New Horizons, where he is one of the instrument scientists. He has published in a variety of subjects from plasma at Venus, to the radiation belts of giant planets, to the interplanetary medium around Pluto. Dr Kollmann’s work commonly combines various techniques of data analysis and numerical modeling. He supports the community by organizing sessions at conferences that bring together different communities and by leading or contributing to White Papers that influence NASA’s and ESA’s future science priorities.Dr. Alexander Drozdov started his scientific career in Moscow State University. His research interests were focused on the radiation effects related to the thunderstorm activity and radiation environments around Earth. In 2012 he started working at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) on research of the radiation belt dynamics using the quasi-linear theory. He has applied his knowledge to perform numerical simulations in the space physics area while the Van Allen Probes mission launched, and he significantly contributed to the satellite data processing at UCLA space environment modeling group. His current research interests are directly related to the investigation of the acceleration, loss, and transport mechanisms of the Earth’s radiation belt electrons. In addition, he is actively involved in research involving radiation protection for interplanetary missions and the study of the radiation environment of Jupiter and Saturn.
