Professor Alison Bruce

Professor Alison Bruce is the head of the nuclear physics research group at the University of Brighton. She is an experimental gamma-ray spectroscopist and her research is based on experiments she leads at international laboratories including GSI/FAIR in Darmstadt, Germany, the University of Jyväskylä in Finland and the RIBF facility in RIKEN, Japan.

Professor Bruce is a fellow of the Institute of Physics and is currently the deputy chair of the NUSTAR board of representatives at the FAIR facility in Germany. Until recently she was the chair of STFC’s nuclear physics grants panel.

She has supervised 12 doctorate (PhD) students to completion and is currently supervising a further two PhD students. She has examined over 20 PhD degrees at universities in the UK and in Australia, Finland, Norway, Spain and Sweden.

How I like to teach

During my time at Brighton I have taught on a range of courses including physics, energy studies, engineering and mathematics. I am currently teaching mathematics to final year mathematics undergraduates and to second year civil engineering students. It is interesting and challenging to teach these two groups who approach the subject quite differently.

Supervising PhD students is an important part of my role and I enjoy working with them as they develop into independent researchers. Many of my students have gone on to positions in academic and research institutes including at the University of Liverpool, the University of Western Cape (South Africa) and the Institute of Cancer Research.

My research interests

I am interested in measuring simple properties of exotic nuclei. The current focus is on neutron-rich zirconium nuclei where there is a prediction that the shape will change from prolate (rugby-ball shaped) to oblate (smartie shaped) as more neutrons are added. We produce these nuclei at experimental facilities around the world and study their properties in the short time (fractions of a second) before they decay into a different element.

Biography

At the end of my undergraduate degree in mathematics and physics at the University of Manchester, I spotted an advert for a student to study for a PhD and spend two years in America at Brookhaven National Laboratory near New York. The topic was nuclear structure physics which I had enjoyed at undergraduate level and so I decided to apply. My interview was my first interaction with Prof Bill Gelletly and I was lucky enough to be accepted. Bill became my PhD supervisor and lifelong mentor and, under the tutelage of Bill and the late and greatly missed Prof Dave Warner, I completed a PhD in experimental nuclear structure physics in 1985.

At that time, one of the major research centres in Europe for nuclear structure physics was the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen and I was privileged to be awarded a position as a Royal Society European Exchange Fellow so that I could study there for two years. I then decided that I wanted to come back to the UK and so spent a few months as a PDRA at the University of Liverpool before landing a job as a Higher Scientific Officer at SERC’s Daresbury Laboratory. Daresbury hosted the UK’s only nuclear physics facility and, in addition to running my own experiments, my job was to provide assistance to external users. This gave me a great opportunity to collaborate with many of the top researchers in Europe.

When the lab closed in 1992, I came to Brighton as a lecturer in the Department of Mathematical Sciences. My job was to teach physics and energy studies. My role has changed many times over the years and I was promoted to professor of physics in 2005. I’m now teaching mathematics but still carrying out research on my favourite topic, the nucleus.
