Steven Schowalter Steven is working on the molecular ion cooling project where he and Kuang are currently performing spectoscopy to determine the internal energy structures of different molecular ions which we are attempting to cool with the MOTION trap system. He spends his spare time writing really long sentences without commas. steven.schowalter@gmail.com |
