American physicist and writer, who serves as Professor Emeritus of Physics at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington. He has been an active participant with the STAR (Solenoidal Tracker At RHIC) Experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and the particle accelerator at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. n addition to his approximately 300 scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals, Cramer writes a regular column, "The Alternate View", appearing in every second issue, for Analog Science Fiction and Fact magazine. He also originated and published a paper on "The Transactional Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics" (TIQM) in July 1986, which is inspired from the Wheeler–Feynman Time-symmetric theory. His book on quantum mechanics, "The Quantum Handshake: Entanglement, Nonlocality and Transactions" (2015), published by Springer Verlag, is a comprehensive introduction to the transactional interpretation. Cramers published novels consist of "Twistor" (1989) and "Einsteins Bridge" (1997); both within the hard science fiction genre. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
