Ava Silverberg, Entomology Research with the Brosi Lab at RMBL, Week 5
Wow! Five weeks went by so fast! My last couple of days at RMBL, consisted of our typical fieldwork but we also engaged in bug pinning! The QNEST team had collected some syrphids and bees for us, so on Tuesday we got to work pinning them for further identification at UDUB. This process was both tedious […]

Merrilee Gallagher-Outlaw Equine Hospital(Week 3)

Patty Minnehan, Astrophysics at LASP, Week 6
This week, I made new maps without normalizing or smoothing(adjusting their value for a better image) the pixels of the gases. Each FITS file is composed of multiple fields, and I created the whole map from 19 individual fields . I divided these files against corresponding error maps to generate signal-to-noise maps. By analyzing the […]
