Dr. Arijit Bose received his Ph.D. in Physics and Astronmoy from the University of Rochester. He then went on to do postdocs at the University of Michigan and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) - Plasma Science and Fusion Center prior to joining the Department of Physics and Astronomy at University of Delaware as an Assistant Professor. In his free time, Dr. Bose enjoys biking, skiing, and playing with his dog.

Cameron Frank graduated from Grinnell College in Iowa in 2016 with a Bachelor's in physics. After teaching high school for the subsequent four years, he joined UD in 2020, and began researching with Dr. Bose the following spring.  His research focuses on modifying existing hydrodynamic inertial confinement fusion code to include magnetohydrodynamic solvers.  When not working on research, Cameron enjoys hanging out with friends, hiking, swimming, and reading.

Chung Hei Leung (Alex) joined the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Delaware in September 2021 as a graduate student. He completed his B.Sc. in Physics at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in Hong Kong. Then, he completed his master's degree at the National Taiwan University. Due to the pandemic, he stayed in Taiwan for one more year and worked in Academic Sinica.

Since 2022, Alex has started working on high-energy-density physics in Arijit Bose’s group. His research focuses on designing experiments for laboratory astrophysics, such as jets and magnetic reconnections. He runs synthetic diagnostics on X-ray radiography, X-ray spectroscopy, and proton radiography in order to optimize the experimental parameters.

In his free time, Alex enjoys sports, such as basketball, squash, and workouts. He also enjoys his time with his son and wife.

Yigeng Tian is a graduate student who is working with Dr. Arijit Bose at UD. He got a B.S. in Physics from the University of Jinan in China, where he was working with Dr. Haiying Liu on DNA methylation sequencing by 2D material nanopores and molecular probes. His current research interest is about laboratory astrophysics experiments that aimed at recreating scaled astrophysical systems and phenomena by using powerful laser facilities. Specifically he is focusing on simulations of laser-driven plasma in external magnetic fields, which are designed for topics related to the corona environment. Usually he spends his free time on cooking, music and watching movies.

Robbie Spiers is a graduate student who came to UD after graduating with a B.S. in Physics from Idaho State University. He now does computational and analytic modeling for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) implosions, mostly focused on magnetohydrodynamics simulations for magnetized ICF applications. In his free time, Robbie spends time rock climbing, hiking, playing the piano, and reading.
