Tim Stoltzfus-Dueck is a research physicist in the theory department at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL). His research focuses on turbulence and transport in the edge region of plasma confinement devices, as well as the physics of plasma rotation and flows. The interaction of edge turbulence and flows is a key factor for the performance and stability of fusion plasmas. Tim previously worked at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Germany, first near Munich where he examined reduced models of edge turbulence with Dr. Bruce Scott, and later in Greifswald with Prof. Per Helander, where he focused on self-driven "instrinsic" rotation in the edge. He has collaborated extensively with plasma experiments, including the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) in Princeton, the DIII-D tokamak in San Diego, and the TCV tokamak in Switzerland. He earned his doctoral degree in plasma physics from Princeton in 2009, and his B.A. in physics and music from Goshen College in 1999.
