Graduate Students

Joe Adamo
Graduate Student in Astronomy
(Advisor: Tim Eifler)

I work on machine learning and statistical data analysis with cosmological datasets, in particular for the SPHEREx mission. I develop and train neural networks to predict covariances as a function of cosmology and systematics parameters and work on improving the inference pipeline for the Roman Space Telescope.

Aaron Goldtooth
Graduate Student in Astronomy
(Advisor: Tim Eifler)

I am interested in theoretical cosmology and understanding physical processes during the early and late universe. I am currently working on determining impact of modeling small scales in the galaxy correlation and weak lensing two point function on cosmological parameter constraints for near-future survey missions.

Yu-Hsiu Huang
Graduate Student in Astronomy
(Advisor: Elisabeth Krause)

I am interested in observational cosmology and extragalactic astronomy. I am now working on understanding the environmental effects on Tully-Fisher relation with IllustrisTNG simulations.

Annie Moore
Graduate Student in Physics  
(Advisor: Elisabeth Krause)

I work on theoretical modeling for power spectra extracted from the SPHEREx mission. 

Paul Rogozenski
Graduate Student in Physics  
(Advisor: Elisabeth Krause)

I am interested in theoretical cosmology and interpreting cosmological observations from the Dark Energy Survey. Currently I work on metrics to quantify whether different cosmological probes are in tension, or consistent with each other.

Pranjal Singh
Graduate Student in Astronomy
  (Advisor: Elisabeth Krause)

I'm interested in observational cosmology. Currently, I'm working on identifying Kinematic Lensing (KL) in galaxies using simulations and spectroscopic/imaging data from Keck, LBT and HST.

Jiachuan Xu
Graduate Student in Astronomy  
(Advisor: Tim Eifler)

I work on Kinematic Lensing (KL), a new idea to combine spectroscopic and imaging information that enables us to use the distortion of galaxy shapes by the gravitational potential of large-scale structure to constrain cosmology. I explore whether KL can be used with the instrumentation of the Roman Space Telescope mission.

Undergraduate Students

Aaron Huhges
Major: Astronomy
(Advisor: Tim Eifler )
I work on Machine Learning shape measurements methods using the galsim software. 

Sai Krishanth Pulikesi Mannan
Major: Astronomy (Advisor: Tim Eifler)
I work on data analysis with the Dark Energy Survey and quantify the most important systematics contributions to the error budget.

Nick Sand
Major: Physics (Advisor: Eduardo Rozo )
I am developing code to do numerical calibrated jackknives with no randoms in numerical simulations to enable fast computation of clustering statistics, including error bars.

Adam Skora
Major: Physics
(Advisor: Eduardo Rozo )
I use multi-wavelength data to characterize the selection function of photometrically selected and SZ-selected galaxy clusters.

Paxton Tamooka
Major: Physics
(Advisor: Eduardo Rozo)
I am studying the velocity structure of satellite galaxies in massive galaxy clusters.
