Members of CIA (Center for Isotope Analysis)

Current PhD Students:

Lucas Reynoso – He is working on the organic-rich salt analogues discovered on the dwarf planet, Ceres and moons of Uranus to understand the physio-chemical conditions available on ocean worlds in our Solar System.

Ronica Sims – She is measuring oxygen isotopes of hydrated, fine-grained and course-grained cosmic dust particles collected from Antarctica, as well as aqueously altered carbonaceous chondrite meteorites similar to Bennu and Ryugu.

Sarah Vierling – She will study the Li isotopic systematics of supernova stardust grains in grain residues of meteorites Orgueil and ALHA 77307.

Current Undergraduate Students:

Tatiana Asadourian – Her research is to quantify the uptake rate of organics into carbonate salts from solution using the NanoSIMS.

Els Shepard – They is using supernova models to make connections between the 1D and 3D models.

Bina Kumari Rauniyar – She is working on the hardness of Ceres simulants.

Shashank Araokar – His research is on identifying organosulfurs in Ryugu.

Past Visiting Graduate Student:

Naphat Apisuk – She will develop and measure C and N implant standards on salts.

Past Postdoctoral Scholars:

Dr. Ziliang Jin – He is currently an Assistant Professor at the Macau University of Science and Technology.

Dr. Timothy Hahn – He is currently a service engineer for Cameca Ametek.
