Research interests
Solar chromosphere and corona; flares; CMEs; solar wind
Stellar activity; exoplanets; planetary magnetospheres
Data inversion; radio instrumentation
I primary use radio telescopes on the ground and in space to explore the above topics. These include the Jansky Very Large Array, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, the Nobeyama Radioheliograph, the Nancay Radioheliograph, and the Arecibo Observatory. I typically supplement radio observations with X-ray, EUV/UV, and optical observations.
