Lee Carkner, graduate student, Dept. of Astronomy and
Astrophysics.
These pages contain information on my
research into T
Tauri stars and star formation, as well
as internet resources
for the class I am teaching this
semester, Introductory Astronomy
Laboratory.
The Division's main focus is on X-ray astronomy via observations
of high-energy sources with
instruments aboard satellites, rockets, and the
Space Shuttle; and development of new
instrumentation for future space
missions to address the processes involved in generating x-rays,
the
amount of matter in the universe, and the origin, evolution,
and the ultimate fate of the
universe.
