David Esquivel

David’s Research Summary: My first task for this internship was self-reflecting on what I would like to do/accomplish. I researched different companies and national labs I would like to work with (ie. NASA, NOAA, Princeton Plasma Physics Lab). Upon completing this self-reflection I was tasked with educating myself on the differences between stiffness and effective… Continue reading David Esquivel

Markos Duey

This summer my research initially focused on ceramic composites for turbine blades in turbo-jet engine configurations. I was tasked with educating myself in the state of the art on ceramic composites. After reading plenty of related published journal articles on ceramic applications in aerospace, I was able to get a solid foundational understanding on the… Continue reading Markos Duey

Allison Fantom

Allison’s Research Summary: Introduction This summer I worked with Sarah Dodson-Robinson on detecting exoplanets which are planets outside of the solar system from signals in a star’s spectra. The main goal was to confirm if a signal was actually a planet or the star’s activity. Every star constantly emits photons, or light in it’s own… Continue reading Allison Fantom
