I am a physics adjunct lecturer. I teach physics laboratory courses. I instruct and present physics concepts to students with different levels of physics knowledge. I give short lectures, aid students with experiments and calculations and explain physics concepts. Part of my work is also grading laboratory reports to evaluate students’ progress and to provide them with written and oral feedback on their progress. I am a physics adjunct lecturer.

I studied spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting which is widely used to measure physical properties of galaxies. I demonstrated that two commonly used synthetic population models: bc03 and FSPS, induce significant differences in modeled spectra. I also provided an estimate of the systematic bias stemming from using the bc03, the FSPS, and varying metallicity on the estimates of the physical properties of galaxies I studied spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting which is widely used to measure physical properties of galaxies.

I conducted research in nuclear physics. I worked on finding energy eigenstates for the two-particle system, consisting of charged and neutral particles with equal masses, in the presence of strong or weak magnetic fields, that models interactions of a proton and a neutron or a deuterium in the presence of the magnetic field. Theoretically developed model was tested using MATHEMATICA I conducted research in nuclear physics.

This was an internship in educational physics. I used JavaScript to write simulations that demonstrated physics phenomena. As my project, I developed the simulation: minimum kinetic energy needed for a ball to roll without slipping around a vertical loop. This was an internship in educational physics.
