Brianna will be working with Drs. KD Leka and Graham Barnes, continuing work she began as an REU student last summer. This summer, after graduating from Stony Brook University, Brianna will focus on new ways of identifying electric current systems in coronal magnetic field models addressing why some active regions produce only small solar flares while others produce large flares. Brianna will enter grad school at the University of New Hampshire this fall. Please welcome Brianna to NWRA! |
