Michael Blaskiewicz is a physicist in the Collider-Accelerator Department (C-AD). Blaskiewicz received his Ph.D. in physics from Cornell University in 1991. Immediately following graduation, he joined Brookhaven as a Fellow in Accelerator Technology at the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS). He was hired as an assistant physicist in 1992, promoted to associate physicist in 1994, and then promoted to the rank of physicist in 1996. In 1999, he was made a physicist with continuing appointment. Blaskiewicz has contributed to the design, analysis, and operation of four C-AD facilities and projects: the AGS Booster, the AGS upgrade to function as a high-intensity accelerator and as an injector for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), the accumulator ring of the Spallation Neutron Source, and RHIC.
