Albert A. Viggiano, a research chemist with the Space Vehicles Directorate of the Air
Force Research Laboratory, graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with
a B.Sc. in chemistry (with highest honors) in 1976. He received his Ph.D. in chemical
physics from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 1980. Since graduate school, he
has been active in the fields of atmospheric ion chemistry and kinetics, specifically in
measuring ion molecule reaction rates of interest to atmospheric chemistry. Dr. Viggiano
developed a chemical ionization mass spectrometer detection scheme for studying the
thermal decomposition of N2O5 and was involved in the chemistry research that allowed
sulfuric acid measurements in the atmosphere to be made. As a postdoctoral fellow in
Heidelberg, Germany, he used these measurements to derive the first height profiles of
sulfuric acid in the atmosphere and was involved in obtaining and analyzing in situ mass
spectrometric data on the ion composition of the stratosphere. Since coming to the Air
Force Research Laboratory in 1983 he has worked on measurements of ion kinetics
related to a number of problems over a broad range of conditions. Dr. Viggiano has
developed a technique that allows the effects of internal energy on the reactivity of gas-
phase ionmolecule reactions to be studied. Using this technique, he has studied the
effect of rotational energy on reactivity in more systems than have been studied
anywhere. He has been instrumental in developing a technique to measure ionmolecule
reactions at temperatures over 1000 K for the first time. The addition of a supersonic
expansion source to the SIFDT allows for the measurement of mass selected cluster ions
at thermal energy for the first time. A high-pressure turbulent flow tube is the first of its
type for studying ionmolecule reactions. Most recently, he has developed a technique
that allows for measuring the kinetics of numerous unique plasma reactions, including a
heretofore previously undiscovered process, electron-catalyzed mutual neutralization. Dr.
Viggiano has authored or coauthored over 320 papers and book chapters and has given 80
seminars at universities and laboratories and over 300 presentations at scientific
meetings. He was lead author of the paper of the year at the Phillips Laboratory in 1993
and spent 2 months at the Max Planck Institut für Kernphysik working with Frank Arnold
under the Air Force Window on Europe program. He won the Loeser award in 1997 and
has won the Air Force Basic Research Award and the Air Force Science and Technology
Achievement Award.
