Research activities

My dissertation research was an experimental investigation of laser-assisted reactions in xenon/chlorine gas mixtures. This work also involved computer simulations of bound-free radiative transitions and modelling of energy disposal in reactive collisions. Further details can be found on my research page, along with a list of related publications.

My work as a Postdoc in the Flowfield Imaging Laboratory at The University of Texas at Austin is described in their site.

I am currently working in the Quantum Sciences and Technology Group at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. My address there is:
