Robert Hayes, Professor (Emeritus)
Biography
Professor Hayes obtained his Ph.D. in physical chemistry at the University of California in 1962. He joined the faculty at Notre Dame in 1961 and has been here since then, except for a semester spent as a visiting associate professor at the University of California in 1971 and a year on leave at the Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron in Hamburg 1975-76.
Research Interests
Professor Hayes' research interests are in the behavior of ionic states of molecules. Currently, they include the behavior of ions produced by double ionization of molecules and the reactions of negative molecular ions with surfaces.
