James (Jamie) Santucci is an Engineering Physicist at DOE’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, America’s premier research laboratory for high-energy physics.  He is active in numerous areas including superconducting linear accelerators, high-brightness photoinjectors, storage rings and particle-beam cooling, relativistic quantum electrons, dark-matter detection and atom interferometry for gravitational-wave detection.  Jamie has been developing laser systems and laser labs for particle accelerators since 1996, and his R&D in Accelerator Science and Technology often requires the development of lasers and transport systems with unique performance properties. 

Jamie is a member of the American Physical Society (APS) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).  He is also an active member in laser-related groups, including the Optical Society of America (OSA), the DOE’s Laser Safety Task Group (EFCOG-LSTG) and the ANSI Z136 subcommittees (SSC-4, SSC-7 and SSC-8).  On summer weekends Jamie is a sailing instructor who teaches kids how to sail.
