Howdy! With more people viewing my page I thought it best to introduce myself fully

My name is Brandon and im a graduate student at UCLA studying solar physics. My work consists of using numerical simulations and lab experiments to study the solar convection zone.

Baffling to see UT Austin continue to make their student body feel unwelcome. Like wdym the words "Latina" and "Latino" were words flagged as "dei-related"????

Award season is upon us once more! If you like reading for these things, I'd love you to check out "Five Views of the Planet Tartarus", my 549-word sci-horror piece that has been described as "WTF" and "holy shit"

Did an outreach event a few weeks ago and we did tornados in our rotating fluid tanks. Super cool on video and even cooler in person

A lot of my work and interests spans multiple fields such as plasma physics, dynamos, planetary physics, astrophysical and geophysical fluid dynamics, and stars! While I love my work, I've ultimately decided to leave grad school with my masters and I'm very excited to see what's in store for me

Does anyone have good notes or a derivation for magneto rotational instability?

You'll get more functionality with an ipad rather than remarkable imo

How the majority of californians voted to keep slavery and indentured servitude in prisons is beyond me. The proposition was written in such plain language as well.
