Group Meeting
Group Meeting Circa 2008, celebrating some good news
(Wei Chen V.Mishra, S.Graser, GRB, P.J.Hirschfeld. Not pictured: Lex Kemper)

Research Interests:
Primarily unconventional superconductors and multiferroics, so far, but I have more interests than I've had time to pursue. I am interested in strongly correlated materials in general. Heavy Fermions, quantum hall effects, quantum criticality, and BEC related phenomena are interesting to me. I would also like to gain some experience with one or more high-powered computational tools (as of right now i ran some DFT code for coursework), like QMC, DMFT, DMRG, or hybrid-DFT/analytic approaches.

COURSES:
Demonstration of Pressure: that getting hit by a sledge hammer between two beds of nails doesnt hurt (and is kinda fun even)
Teaching

Summer 2010 Phys2053 (mechanics, fluids, heat, vibrations)
Summer 2009 Physics 2005 "Applied Physics" primarily for non-majors outside prehealth or engineering
