These are all of the research projects I’ve done in my physics career, ranging from acoustics to plasma.

particle in cell from scratchThis code was made for the final project of a computational physics class at UCLA. It was my introduction to computational plasma physics. ...
concert hall simulationThis simulation attempts to recreate the distribution of sound in square concert halls. The set-up is seen in the figure below, where the radii are calculate through geometry The radii come out to be $$\begin{aligned} r_1 &= d_1 \sqrt{\left(\frac{y}{2d_1-x}\right)^2 + 1} \\ r_3 &= d_3 \sqrt{\left(\frac{y}{2d_1+x}\right)^2 + 1} \\ r_2 &= \sqrt{\left(\frac{y(2d_1-x)}{d_1}\right)^2 + (d_1 - x)^2} \\ r_4 &= \sqrt{\left(\frac{y(2d_1+x)}{d_1}\right)^2 + (d_1 + x)^2} \\ r_5 &= \sqrt{x^2 + y^2} \end{aligned}....
large plasma device at UCLAa picture of the large plasma device Most of my research done at UCLA is summarized in a poster: Survery Spectroscopy in the Large Plasma Device. I presented this poster at APS DPP 2022.
TAETAE is a company attempting fusion with an field reversed configuration (FRC) device. I can’t get into specifics, but I’m in the spectroscopy group working on a spectrometer diagnostic and it’s post-shot processing code, as well as a separate machine learning project.
