Ramona Vogt

Ramona Lynn Vogt is a high-energy physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

Education Vogt received her Ph.D. in 1989 from the State University of New York at Stony Brook with the thesis topic "Charmonium Interactions with Hadronic Matter".

Career Vogt completed postdoctoral fellowships at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and at the GSI in Darmstadt, Germany. She then worked as staff scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory before moving back to LLNL. Vogt was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society (APS) in 2010 and in 2012 served as chair of the APS Topical Group on Hadronic Physics.

Vogt is the author of "Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions" (Elsevier, 2007). She is known for her contribution to the understanding of the dynamics of heavy quark and charmonium production in collisions with nuclei and providing guidance for using these probes in experimental investigations of hard dynamics in collisions with nuclei.
