Dr. Moo-Young Han (1934- ) is a professor of physics at Duke University. Along with Dr. Yoichiro Nambu of the University of Chicago, Dr. Han is credited with introducing the SU(3) symmetry of quarks, today known as the color charge. The color charge is the basis of the strong force as explained by quantum chromodynamics. He is beloved by his students at Duke, especially those in his seminar "From Quanta to Quarks."

Limited biography:

Dr. Han was born in Seoul, Korea. He emigrated to the US after the Korean War to attend Carroll College, which is where he learned to drink beer. He received his PhD from the University of Rochester and has been on the Duke physics faculty since 1967. His website is: http://www.duke.edu/~myhan/introp.html.

His un-equaled popularity on the Duke campus can be attributed to the singular fact that he has made the impossible possible - turning classical and modern physics into a reasonably easy and interesting subject matter. He is also known to host online office hours.
