Matt Turner
I am a student in the Physics PhD program at the University
of Washington, where I am working with the Eöt-Wash group at
CENPA, studying short-range gravity. My undergraduate work was in
high-intensity optics, specifically high-harmonics generation. The
picture at right was taken while I was on NASA's "Vomit Comet", their
microgravity testbed, investigating radiometric particle levitation.
(And yes, I did lose my breakfast in the name of
science.)
