Ms. Claire Bekker

Claire Bekker is a researcher in experimental nuclear physics whose work centers on photonuclear reactions and nuclear response to electromagnetic probes. Her research is closely connected to the PANDORA project, which investigates photoabsorption processes in light nuclei and their relevance to nuclear structure and astrophysical phenomena. She contributes to studies that bridge precise measurements and advanced theoretical modeling.

Her publications focus on measuring photoabsorption cross sections, particularly in the region of the giant dipole resonance, using techniques such as proton inelastic scattering and virtual photon methods. By combining high-resolution experimental data with nuclear models and reaction codes, her work supports improved predictions of photonuclear processes and their role in cosmic-ray interactions.

Based on the currently available publications, the body of work is still emerging. Nevertheless, it demonstrates strong expertise in experimental methods, nuclear data analysis, and the integration of theory and experiment to address questions in nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics.
