Research Description: I am primarily interested in investigating dynamical properties of the early stage quark gluon plasma with real time lattice simulations. The code I use for the investigation of such properties is CPIC3D, the Colored-Particle-In-Cell code, which simulates both U(1) and SU(2) particles obeying the Vlasov equation of motion. Secondarily I am interested in using these transport calculations as a starting point for further hydrodynamics calculations. Last but not least I am interested in Quantum Field Theory and mathmatical Group Theory
