      Research Assistant

      I spent the summer at Brookhaven with my physics professor, Dr. Brett Fadem, and other students doing research in nuclear physics. The main focus was on the study of transverse energy in 200 GeV Au+Au collisions.The process of quality assurance to isolate the purest data set for analysis was greatly facilitated by a program written by us to create various graphs of the data that could then be used to visually decipher the immense amount of raw data.
