Report summary

For Duke University Department of Physics in 2015-2026, the graph shows 77 visible PIs and 56 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Physics and Astronomy as the leading field (50% of slots across 63 PIs; 63 labels), Nuclear and High Energy Physics as the leading subfield (20% of slots across 31 PIs; 31 labels), and Particle physics theoretical and experimental studies as the leading topic (9% of slots across 21 PIs; 21 labels). That concentration is a strength for a focused search, although candidates outside Physics and Astronomy should inspect the smaller groups closely. The top weighted PIs are Ehsan Samei (56.3 weighted works; Advanced X-ray and CT Imaging, Radiation Dose and Imaging). The most visible ties are Martin C. Fischer and Warren S. Warren (28 shared works, weight 15.4). The standout breakdown groups are group 1 with 10 PIs, 9 internal connections, weight 34.6, around Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics, Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging, Artificial Intelligence, led by Ehsan Samei, Jianfeng Lu, Weitao Yang.
