Reaction Mechanisms of Combustion Intermediates

When
-

Abstract: Modeling gas-phase chemical kinetics relevant to combustion and atmospheric chemistry requires a complete description of elementary reactions involving ephemeral species such as hydroperoxyalkyl radicals, Q̇OOH, which undergo competing sets of unimolecular reactions and bimolecular reactions with O2. The balance of flux from the competition affects rates of chain-branching and inherently depends on temperature, pressure, and oxygen concentration.

Blazing the Trails to Habitable Planets: Over the Experimental > Mountains and Across the Observational Deserts

When
-

Abstract: The discovery of thousands of planets orbiting stars beyond the solar system has fundamentally shifted our view of Earth’s place in the Universe, has captivated the public imagination, and has transformed research priorities in astrophysics. We are now actively searching for atmospheres on temperate, terrestrial planets, and are developing the technical tools to find and characterize “Earth-2.0”.

Science Traceability Matrix (STM): my journey from Parker Solar Probe (PSP) to Space Weather Investigation Frontier (SWIFT)

When
-

NASA science missions are often complex systems of systems, involving various stakeholders, including the United States’ Congress. To ensure a clear and concise communication of expectations, requirements, and constraints, NASA has adopted the Science Traceability Matrix (STM). STM provides a logical flow from the decadal survey to science goals and objectives, mission and instrument requirements, and data products. STM serves as a summary of what science will be achieved and how it will be achieved, with a clear definition of what mission success will look like.

Biochemistry Seminar Series

When
-

The Department of Biochemistry invites professors and scientists from other universities and institutes to present seminars at the University of Colorado Boulder throughout the academic year. These seminars provide an opportunity for faculty and students to learn about exciting current research.
