Raul Armendariz, began a postdoctoral fellowship in experimental nuclear physics in 2008 at the University of California, working on the PHENIX-RHIC project (http://www.phenix.bnl.gov/) searching for the Quark-Gluon Plasma phase transition at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Previously he worked as a postdoc at BNL in observational cosmology working jointly with Harvard University on the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope Dark Matter project. Raul obtained a PhD in Nuclear Physics from the New Mexico State University on the PHENIX-RHIC project. He worked as an electrical engineer at the Very Large Array, NRAO, in small antennae systems. Raul obtained an M.S. in physics from the University of Texas at El Paso, involving a search for gravitational waves in Pioneer 10 spaceprobe tracking data, while an electrical engineering fellow at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, NASA. He earned his B.S. in Physics from Loyola University of Chicago.
