I did my undergraduate studies in Physics at Simon Bolivar University in
Caracas, including a year at Lund University. I am currently pursuing a
PhD at the University of Illinois. For about 1 1/2 years I have been
involved in the COMPASS experiment at CERN, working on the design of new
Drift Chambers 5 and 6. For the last six months I have also been
involved in the PHENIX experiment at Brookhaven National Lab, NY;
working on the calibration for the Muon Piston Calorimeter for the
ongoing run13 and plan to do my dissertation work on the measurement of
\Delta g, i.e., the contribution of gluons to the total spin of the
proton. I work both in Linux and Windows. I program almost entirely on
C++ (plus ROOT) for data analysis. I have used Java in the past and have
some command of MATLAB and Labview. |
