Ronan works on novel observational techniques that broaden our knowledge of star formation within our galaxy. He aims to reconstruct recent star formation history using GAIA and SDSS-V data of young stars with a goal of creating the time-resolved star formation map in the last…
Dr. Kartheik Iyer is currently a NASA Hubble Fellow at Columbia University in New York. He was a Dunlap Fellow from 2019-2022.
At the Dunlap Institute, Peter worked on the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME), an innovative radio telescope that will survey a vast volume of the Universe to produce a three-dimensional map of neutral hydrogen by measuring the cosmologically red-shifted 21cm radiation it emits. Peter’s…
In December 2014, Konopacky left the Dunlap to become Assistant Professor, Department of Physics, at the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences, UC San Diego.
David Law studies the formation, properties and evolution of galaxies and their dark matter halos. With instruments like the Hubble Space Telescope and the twin Keck telescopes, he observes very distant galaxies at a time of abundant star-formation. Law is a member of the Mapping…
At the Dunlap Institute, Nicholas Law searched for exoplanets on many fronts. As part of the Palomar Transit Factory survey, he has detected potential exoplanets orbiting M-dwarf stars. He was also a member of the team developing planet-hunting instruments at the Dunlap Institute, including Arctic…
