**核物理入門**

Kenneth S. Krane is Professor of Physics at Oregon State University, where he has served on the faculty since 1974, including 14 years as Department Chair. He received the Ph.D. in nuclear physics from Purdue University in 1970 and held postdoctoral research positions at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory before joining the faculty at Oregon State. His research involves nuclear structure and nuclear spectroscopy, and has led to more than 100 papers in refereed journals and 30 years of funding in experimental nuclear physics from NSF and DOE. He was selected to be a Fellow of the American Physical Society by the Division of Nuclear Physics. He is also involved in education research and curriculum development and has held numerous NSF grants supporting those activities. He has served as chair of the APS Committee on Education, the APS Forum on Education, and the AIP Advisory Committee on Physics Education. From 1995-2006 he was the director of the Workshop for New Faculty in Physics and Astronomy, a national mentoring program for college and university faculty. In 2004 he was awarded the Millikan Medal of the American Association of Physics Teachers in recognition of his contributions to physics teaching.

肯尼斯·S·克蘭是俄勒岡州立大學的物理學教授，自1974年以來一直在該校任教，其中14年擔任系主任。他於1970年在普渡大學獲得核物理學博士學位，並在洛斯阿拉莫斯國家實驗室和勞倫斯伯克利國家實驗室擔任博士後研究職位，然後加入俄勒岡州立大學的教職。他的研究涉及核結構和核光譜學，並在同行評審的期刊上發表了超過100篇論文，並獲得了來自國家科學基金會（NSF）和能源部（DOE）在實驗核物理領域的30年資助。他被美國物理學會核物理部門選為會士。他還參與教育研究和課程開發，並獲得了多項支持這些活動的NSF資助。他曾擔任美國物理學會教育委員會、教育論壇及美國物理學會物理教育諮詢委員會的主席。1995年至2006年，他擔任物理與天文學新任教職員工作坊的主任，這是一個全國性的高等院校教職員指導計劃。2004年，他因對物理教學的貢獻而獲得美國物理教師協會的米利肯獎章。
