Daniel M. Neumark (born 1955) is an American chemist focusing in physical chemistry and molecular structure and dynamics. He specializes in the use of ultra-high vacuum techniques (including molecular beams) and photochemistry to characterize the quantum states of elusive or short-lived chemical entities in the gas phase. Neumark obtained his B.A. and M.A. from Harvard University and went on to earn his Ph.D. in physical chemistry from University of California, Berkeley in the lab of future Nobel laureate
