Greetings to those who have wandered onto the UMN Physics People Page. I am Adam Schreckenberger, but you can call me Wing. I recently moved to Minneapolis from Chicago, Illinois, and I am getting acquainted with my new surroundings. You've probably realized by now that I enjoy the field of physics, but I am also a fan of writing, drawing, jamming on the guitar, ranting about miscellaneous stuff, and plotting to take over the world. My approach to physics is this: many of you who come through the doors of Tate may not like the subject, but it's my job to teach and help you along the way. A physicist who is not fascinated by teaching really is not a physicist. For those of you who have me TA your class, I hope you enjoy the experience - also, don't be afraid to call me. :)

Peace out,
Adam

Research Areas
Summer 2009 - 1st Year - MINOS/NOvA

Current Research

Currently I am working on running MINOS overlays for Monte Carlo processed with a reversed horn current. In other words, I am striving to understand what physics may appear during runs in which anti-neutrinos are focused as opposed to neutrinos. Additionally, I am assisting the NOvA group in a materials study of the scintillator and other used substances.

Education

B.S. Engineering Physics - University of Illinois - Urbana-Champaign
