Current Research

Waves and instabilities in plasmas (experimental and theoretical), particularly: experiments on satellites to measure the naturally occurring waves in the earth's magnetosphere and in the solar system. Currently our group has experiments on four spacecraft orbiting the sun, measuring the electric and magnetic fields of the waves and turbulence of the solar wind.
