Imig, Julie | Galactic Evolution of Phosphorus and Sulfur Using Star Clusters | The chemical composition of a galaxy changes as it evolves, so understanding the evolutionary processes of individual elements can be powerful tools in unravelling the history of a galaxy. Phosphorus is considered one of the key building blocks of life, and sulfur is an alpha-element, a tracer of su... | 2017 | |

Dutson, Matthew J. | Reconstruction of Cosmic Ray Geometry using Cherenkov backscattering | Fluorescence detectors are often used to examine the energy spectrum and arrival directions of ultra high energy cosmic rays. An accurate reconstruction of geometry is key when determining both energy and direction. In the past, it has been necessary to build multiple fluorescence detectors to take ... | 2017 | |

Dyer, Jamie | Studies of Spectral Variability of Quasars with Multi-Epoch Analyses | Quasars are supermassive black holes known to drive galaxy formation. They can have masses up to 109 solar masses and are the most luminous known objects in the sky, making them very important trackers of cosmic evolution. Given the large amount of research already surrounding quasar astrophysics, t... | 2017 | |

Wilson, Alexis | West Antarctica as a Natural Laboratory for Cloud Microphysics | Clouds contribute to energy regulation in the global climate system. Remote and unaffected by local pollution sources, Antarctica offers a unique laboratory to study clouds and their influence on the surface energy budget. The study of these clouds is particularly interesting as global temperatures ... | 2017 |
