Student Projects

Examples of student projects

  • White et al image

    White et al

    Summer students J. white and W. Johns wrote code to calculate the energies of ions in plasmas, and find their populations.  This work was published in Physics of Plasmas. Contact C. Starrett to find out more.

  • Aluminum hugoniot

    Ottoway et al

    Post-bac C. Ottoway systematically evaluated the effect of ionic disorder on the principal shock Hugoniot.  Her work was published in Physical Review E.  Contact C. Starrett to find out more.

  • RSGF cluster plot

    Laraia et al

    Summer Students M. Laraia and C. Hansen implemented a new method to calculate electronic structure in warm dense matter.  Their work was published in High Energy Density Physics.  Contact C. Starrett to find out more.
