Bio
Dr. Danielle Yahne is a neutron scattering scientist at the HB-2A Powder Diffraction beamline at the High Flux Isotope Reactor. Danielle earned her Ph.D. in Physics from Colorado State University in 2022, where she studied emergent phenomena in geometrically frustrated rare-earth magnets under the supervision of Dr. Kate Ross. After graduation, she spent just under two years at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland as a Post-Doctoral Fellow with Dr. Marc Janoschek, investigating the microscopic origins and tuning of novel skyrmion lattices. Danielle joined the Neutron Sciences Directorate in 2024, and her research utilizes neutron scattering to study complex magnetism in quantum materials, with a particular interest in external control parameters (e.g. field, pressure, chemical substitution) to tune materials underlying interactions towards exotic states.
