Report summary

For Duke University Department of Physics in 2021-2023, the graph shows 21 visible PIs and 0 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Physics and Astronomy as the leading field (44% of slots across 17 PIs; 17 labels), Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics as the leading subfield (13% of slots across 6 PIs; 6 labels), and Particle physics theoretical and experimental studies as the leading topic (6% of slots across 4 PIs; 4 labels). That is of concern, because the roster has names but no visible internal collaboration structure. The most prominent PIs by weighted works are Igor Akushevich (22.9 weighted works; Dementia and Cognitive Impairment Research, Nutritional Studies and Diet). No internal PI-to-PI collaboration edge is visible in this period. No multi-PI collaboration group is visible in this period, a concerning sign if the department expects a connected internal network.
