People
Rand Burnette - Rand is a junior physics major from Crawfordsville, Indiana. He is studying possible structures of dark matter using a version of the GABE code that follows the Schroedinger-Poisson equations for a scalar field.
Allegra Fass - Allegra is a junior physics major from Claremont, California. She is remaking GABE in spherical polar coordinates in order to study compact objects.
Ericka Florio - Ericka is a sophomore physics major from Seattle, Washington. She studies Early Dark Energy (EDE), a possible solution to the Hubble tension, by simulating the EDE field in its non-linear regime.
Mary Gerhardinger - Mary is a sophomore physics major from Toledo, Ohio. She is studying a non-linear Early Dark Energy field as a possible solution to the Hubble Tension.
Ryn Grutkoski - Ryn is a junior physics major at Kenyon College from New Brighton, Minnesota. They are researching preheating with multiple gauge fields with gauge GABE.
Maria Huey - Maria is a sophomore physics major at Kenyon College. She is from Cincinnati, Ohio and is in charge of our visualization department, converting our output to HDF5 files, making plots and movies.
Gwyneth Phillips - Gwyneth is a Senior at Kenyon College from Wheaton, Illinois. Right now, she is investigating the behavior of dark matter at the galactic scale by using Schrodinger GABE with modified boundary conditions.
Scott Shaffer - Scott, class of 2020, is a Physics and Math major at Kenyon College. He uses CUDA enabled GABE to study Galileon theories, with the help of GPU's and their incredible ability to take Fourier transforms.
John T. Giblin, Jr (Tom) - Tom has been at Kenyon Since 2009 and is currently an Associate Professor of Physics. Tom is interested in how numerical methods can help us learn about fundamental physics. His interests are in Cosmology, Particle Physics and Computation.
Alumni and Collaborators
Computers
Ann - Ann joined the group in May, 2014. She has 32 processors and 128 GB of RAM; but she's a CUDAmonster with a brand new Tessla K40 with 2880 Cores!
Eliza - Eliza just joined our group in June 2015. She is a monster with 256 GB of ram and twenty 3 GHz cores.
Jo - Jo has been with the cosmology group since 2009. Although she only has eight 3 Ghz processors, she makes up for it with 196 GB of RAM and 2 TB of 15,000 RPM storage.
Gabrielle - Gabrielle is the largest single-node-computer in central Ohio. Her primary allegiance is to the deparment of physics, but she enjoys Cosmological simulations. With 512 GB of RAM and 64 processors (that's right, 512 GB of shared memory) she can do almost anything.
Holly - Holly joined the cosmology group in 2012, replacing Holly Emeritus--the founding member. She is a MacPro with 64 GB of RAM and 8 real (16 virtual) processors. She is unparalled in her ability to run code, render phots and play '80's hair band music at the same time.
Sabrina - Sabrina is the administrative head of the Cosmological Simulators. She is a MacPro with 12 real-2.66 Ghz cores and 64 GB of RAM. She does what she wants.
