- Basic Information -

Time in Larsen Lab: 2013-2014
Basic Project Description: Primarily worked with Dr. Gardner Marshall on Particle Physics things, but also spent some time working in our lab. The work with us focused on (i) trying to develop tests to determine if a data-set is statistically stationary, and (ii) exploring fractal properties of disdrometrically-measured rainfall.

- Post-Graduation Activities and Current Status -

After graduating from CofC, Tim went to William and Mary to obtain his Ph.D. in Physics. He has now taken a position as a postdoc at UConn, working at Jefferson Lab in Virginia. His Ph.D. research involved studying the internal structure of the nucleus via measurements of semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering events with the 12 GeV electron beam at Jefferson Lab.
