Dr. Strom's work examines the origin of the stellar initial mass function
through carefully selected samples from near-infrared photometry and
spectroscopy; and the origin of stellar angular momentum by subjecting the
disk regulation hypothesis to rigorous tests. He serves the Observatories by
exploring ways to facilitate and lead community-based surveys, by defining
and implementing plans for Gemini era operations, and by providing
intellectual energy to their long-term planning and role in the broader
scientific community.
Dr. Strom received his PhD from Harvard and served on the faculty of
SUNY-Stony Brook before joining the KPNO scientific staff. He left the KPNO
for a faculty position at University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and returns
to the Observatories from there, where he is both Chair of the Five College
Astronomy Department and Director of the Large Millimeter Telescope Project.
Thanks to HAC for the notice.
