[YAK] Tooting of Family Horn

Both for myself and to shine a ray of light, after recent events,
that there really is science out there…

My nephew has been elected as a fellow of the American Physics
Society…

That puts him in company with Feynman, Einstein… Kind of like
winning the Academy Award, but better than that… There are real
reasons why I shouldn’t plaster his name on the web, but here’s his
citation:

Los Alamos National Laboratory

Citation: For original theoretical and computational research in
several areas of non-ideal plasmas, including non-equilibrium
properties of ultra-cold plasmas, collective properties of dusty
plasmas, transport in strongly coupled plasmas, and atomic physics
in dense plasmas. Nominated by: Plasma Physics (DPP)

Next up, Nobel Prize!!!
