Félicie Albert
Félicie Albert is a French-born American physicist working on laser plasma accelerators. She is the deputy director for the Center for High Energy Density Science[1] at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and staff scientist at the National Ignition Facility and Photon Science Directorate and the Joint High Energy Density Sciences organization.[2][3] She received BS in 2003 in engineering from Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Physique de Marseille (now Ecole Centrale de Marseille), in France, her master's degree in optics from the University of Central Florida in 2004 and her PhD from Ecole Polytechnique in 2007, before joining LLNL as a postdoctoral fellow in 2008.[2] Her main expertise are "the generation and applications of novel sources of electrons, X-rays and gamma-rays through laser-plasma interaction, laser-wakefield acceleration and Compton scattering."[4]
She received the Katherine E. Weimer Award from the American Physical Society[5] in 2017, and the Presidential Early Career Award for Science and Engineers[3] in 2019. Also in 2019, she was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society, after a nomination from the APS Division of Plasma Physics, "for many original contributions to the development of directional X-ray beams for probing high-energy density matter".[6]
