Brian D. Fields is a Professor in the Department of Astronomy at Illinois University. His research focuses on the connections between 'inner space' and 'outer space,' exploring the highest-energy sites in the universe, such as the big bang, exploding stars (supernovae), and high-energy particles in space (cosmic rays). He investigates where nuclear physics and elementary particle physics play a central role, aiming to trace the history of matter through cosmic time. His work also involves using high-energy phenomena and particle accelerators to probe fundamental physics in ways that are inaccessible to terrestrial experiments. Fields earned his PhD in Physics from the University of Chicago in 1994 and holds an AB in Physics and English from Williams College, obtained in 1989.
