Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Hare is an Assistant Professor and plasma physicist with 11 years of experience building and leading pulsed-power experiments for laboratory astrophysics and fusion-relevant science. He founded and led the development of PUFFIN, a purpose-built pulser at MIT now continued at Cornell, to probe magnetic reconnection and magnetized turbulence under extreme conditions. His background spans PhD work on the million-ampere MAGPIE generator, diagnostic design for ITER at the Max Planck Institute, and hands-on VUV spectroscopy on tokamaks, combining experimental leadership with quantitative diagnostics, modelling, and uncertainty analysis. Based in Cambridge, MA, he blends big-machine engineering with fundamental plasma physics to tackle problems that connect astrophysical phenomena to magneto-inertial fusion concepts.
