This summer, I learned about magnetohydrodynamics (the physics of electrically conducting fluids), and then used computers to simulate the magnetohydrodynamics of neutron star collisions in order to find the origin of their powerful magnetic field.

I found your research on magnetic fields of neutron stars to be very exciting. I especially liked learning about how many different technologies/resources you had to use to do your project, such as having to both understand the theoretical, mathematical foundation for your work but then translating that work practically into code and simulations to quantify a new process to understand our universe. I am excited to see where this goes!
