About
Post Doctoral Fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
I have completed my PhD (DPhil Oxon) in Atomic and Laser Pysics at the University of Oxford. My project focused on x-ray scattering in compressed hydrogen under Dr. Gianluca Gregori, Prof. Andrew Jephcoat and Prof. Justin Wark. I specialise in the study of the equation of state of strongly coupled/Fermi-degenerate plasmas formed by shock-compression of solid and liquid targets using high power lasers and steady-state high pressure experiments with diamond anvil cells (DAC). My thesis work involves measurement of the dynamic response function of warm dense hydrogen/deuterium in application of determining the thermodynamic quantities and equation of state of interiors of giant planets using inelastic x-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS), velocity interferometry (VISAR) and optical pyrometry (SOP) techniques. The experiments are usually done at large scale laser facilities such as Omega (Univ. of Rochester, NY), Gekko laser (Univ. of Osaka, Japan), Titan laser (LLNL, CA), Gemini & Vulcan lasers (RAL, UK) or at synchrotron facilities (Diamond Light Source, RAL, UK). Theoretical work and data analysis is based at Oxford, UK.
I did my undergraduate degree at Imperial College London, which I finished with my MSci project on capillary discharge pumped x-ray laser (2007-08).
