J. Michael Brown

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

J. Michael Brown is an American geophysicist.

Brown received his PhD in geophysics from the University of Minnesota in 1980 . He is a professor at the University of Washington .

In 2002 he received the Louis Néel Medal for his outstanding work in the development of sophisticated experiments to determine the physical properties of iron and other materials in the deep earth's interior and for his outstanding contributions to the physics of minerals in the earth's core .

He also dealt with the dynamics of the ocean presumed to be in Europe .
