Dr. Miller's professional interests and experience include nuclear physics with heavy ions; sources and effects of space radiation, in particular the heavy ions in the galactic cosmic radiation; simulation of the space radiation environment at particle accelerators; and theoretical modeling of space radiation effects.

His research interests include space radiation transport code development, space radiation shielding, theoretical modeling of secondary neutron production cross sections and spectra from energetic proton and heavy-ion interactions with thin and thick targets, modeling production of radioactive and stable heavy nuclides from nuclear spallation, and design of neutron sources, including cold sources, for use in radiography, radiotherapy, neutron activation analysis, and materials studies. He is the principal investigator and leader of the multi-institutional, NASA-funded, Space Radiation Transport Code Development Consortium.
