Scientific Interest
John Marriner started his scientific career as a graduate student
working on neutrino physics at the fifteen foot bubble chamber. He
joined the laboratory staff in 1978 and worked on hyperon decay
experiments. In 1981, he moved to the accelerator division where he
worked on the design of the antiproton source stochastic cooling
systems. Except for a brief break in 1991 to work on the CDF muon
detection and tracking systems, John worked on accelerator problems in
support of the Tevatron collider program. In 2004, he started working
exclusively on astro-particle physics, participating in the Sloan
Digital Sky Survey, the Dark Energy Survey, and the Supernova
Acceleration Probe supernova searches. He recently started work on a
possible future project to measure dark energy using the 21 cm emission
of neutral hydrogen.
