Gerald B. Cleaver is a professor in the department of physics at Baylor University[1] and is the Head of the Early Universe Cosmology and Strings (EUCOS) division of Baylor's Center for Astrophysics, Space Physics & Engineering Research (CASPER). His research specialty is string theory, quantum gravity and early universe cosmology.[2]
Career[edit]
Gerald Cleaver did his Ph.D. at Caltech where John H. Schwarz was his thesis adviser.[2] He worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Texas A&M University, University of Pennsylvania and the Ohio State University before becoming an assistant professor in Baylor University in 2001. He has been a full professor in Baylor University since 2013.[2]
Research[edit]
With Dimitri Nanopoulos Cleaver constructed the first[citation needed] string-derived model containing only the particles of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) in the observable sector.[3]
At Baylor University Cleaver has constructed the first[citation needed] string derived Near-MSSM[4] possessing the potential to resolve the factor-of-20 difference between the MSSM unification scale of 2.5×1025 eV (25 YeV or 4.0 MJ) and the weakly coupled heterotic string scale of 5×1026 eV (500 YeV or 80 MJ) via a robust method referred to as "optical unification".
