A physics educator whose work with Paloma Alameda-Meléndez makes particle detection accessible through a homemade diffusion cloud chamber. An alcohol reservoir above a dry-ice-cooled base creates a sensitive vapor layer. Ionization along a passing particle’s path triggers droplets, turning an invisible trajectory into a visible track without a particle accelerator.[ref]
