The Bataller Research Group is focused on investigating the fundamental properties of dense plasma and how materials evolve when exposed to the extreme environments found in current and next-generation nuclear reactors. Dr. Bataller specializes in ultrafast laser and emission spectroscopy and is currently developing the following laboratories:
- Ultrafast Plasma Laboratory (UPL)
- Molten-salt Ultrafast Spectroscopy Characterization Laboratory (MUSCL)
- Nuclear Materials Ultrafast Spectroscopy Characterization Laboratory (NMUSCL)
