RESEARCH
42-inch telescope dome

The Solar-Stellar Spectrograph

Wes Lockwood, Brian Skiff, and I are pleased to thank the National Science Foundation for their continued support of the SSS project. Observations will be continuing through early 2011.

The Sun Blog

Read my blog, with news about our research project and recent results from other studies about the Sun, Sun-like stars, and climate change.

Solar Analogs

Proceedings of the Second Annual Lowell Observatory Fall Workshop entitled Solar Analogs: Characteristics and Optimum Candidates, held October 5-7, 1997. Eventually I'll fold this into the main SSS site, and the pages are formatted in Jurassic HTML, but serviceable until I have time to give it a fresher skin.

Solar Analogs II

One solar cycle after Solar Analogs, we are hosting Solar Analogs II. The conference will be from September 20 to 23, 2009.

Stellar Chromospheric Activity

I've published an invited review entitled Stellar Chromospheric Activity in the online journal Living Reviews of Solar Physics.

OUTREACH

The Lowell Blog

I'm one of the contributors to our blog, which we use for any Lowell news, from research results to new outreach programs. Check it out and enjoy!

Me in Barrow

Barrow, Alaska

In 2002, I had a wonderful opportunity to travel to Barrow, AK, in the dead of winter, to do some astronomy classes at the local elementary and high schools. Read my travelogue here.

Astronomical Imagery

I've become interested in CGI rendering while doing multimedia shows for use at Lowell. Here's a recent render of a newly discovered exoplanet, done with Blender.

FUN STUFF

Music

I enjoy making synthesizer realizations of various works of music. Links and MP3s here.

The Lowell Riders

We have an odd collection of mountain bikers here at Lowell. Read about some of our misadventures here.
