Paper Related<\/strong><\/p>\n

Academic Papers make up a fundamental part of a researcher’s life. Keeping up with the day to day new publications can be difficult but not impossible. Two great resources to help with this are Cornell University\u2019s Open Source Papers Website<\/a> and NASA\u2019s Astrophysics Data Archive<\/a> of papers. To investigate more on a certain topic, you can use these two websites Paper Scape<\/a> and Connected Papers<\/a> to find similar papers. If you wish to find more works by or information regarding a specific scientist, the website ORCID<\/a> is used by many such researchers.<\/p>\n

When you begin writing a paper, a great place to write it is in an open source, online latex environment such as Over Leaf<\/a>. If you are submitting to an AAS Journal<\/a>, you can use their template<\/a> to get you started!<\/p>\n

Telescope Facilities and Observing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Did you hear of an observatory or want to know of telescopes in a certain place? This List of USA Observatories<\/a> can be a helpful start. Did you see a celestial object or want to get an idea of what you are observing is supposed to look like? SIMBAD: Object Lookup<\/a> is a useful site to help with this as well as this Interactive Night Sky<\/a> website for a more basic approach. Whether you are observing Disks<\/a>, Exoplanets<\/a>, or Comets<\/a> there are archives of data to help.<\/p>\n

Southeastern Association for Research in Astronomy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clemson University shares time, with researchers from other institutions, on the SARA\u00a0 0.9-meter telescope<\/a> located at Kitt Peak, Arizona. Faculty and students at Clemson University conduct remote observing runs from the Kinard Laboratory of Physics.<\/p>\n

Clemson Atmospheric Research Laboratory<\/strong><\/p>\n

CARL is the Clemson Atmospheric Research Laboratory and is in the Fants Grove experimental forest.\u00a0 There are several radio frequency experiments that are being conducted, including ongoing data collection of HF signals to understand the bottomside ionosphere and a coherent scatter radar to look at plasma structuring associated with sporadic E.\u00a0 The site is an ideal radio quiet site.<\/p>\n

Electron Beam Ion Transport<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Clemson University Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT)<\/a> laboratory is housed in the basement of Kinard Laboratory and was funded through an NSF Major Research Instrumentation grant in 2010. The laboratory is built around a superconducting electron beam ion source (EBIS-SC) and bending\/analyzing magnet capable of producing, trapping, and creating energetic beams of multiply charged ions of injected elements. As a trap, the EBIT source represents a plasma containing a distribution of multiple charge states which interact with neutrals, ions and electrons to produce x-rays similar to those found in fusion reactors or stellar environments. As an energetic beam source, the EBIT can accelerate multiply charged ions to velocities relevant for laboratory-based solar wind studies on gaseous or solid targets. Projects in the laboratory therefore encompass multiple disciplines, including atomic physics, laboratory astrophysics, biophysics and condensed matter physics.<\/p>\n
