Foundation/Association

• Dynamically controlled magnetism in a 41K spinor Bose-Einstein condensate. (2014 Creighton University Summer Research Fellowship, role: P.I.). The goal of this research is to construct a two-dimensional magneto- optical trap, which is a first step in achieving Bose-Einstein condensation. Application: October 31, 2013. Funded: December 11, 2013.

• Laser-Cooling Atoms: Making the Coldest Stuff in the Universe. (Dr. George F. Haddix President’s Faculty Research Fund, Creighton University, role: P.I.) The goal of this research is to lead two undergraduate students during the summer of 2013 in building two critical components of the Bose-Einstein condensation apparatus. The first is the laser required to cool the atoms, and the second is a wavelength-meter needed to set the laser to the proper wavelength. Application: December 1, 2012. Funded: February 22, 2013.
