Papers

Characterizing the Dark Current of the SU320-1.7T1 InGaAs Array at Cryogenic Temperatures (PDF format)

In Spring 2004, I wrote my undergraduate thesis. This is merely a backup copy.

Work Dump

This is an area for things I did at work.

Gain for the HAWAII-1 engineering-grade array

FETs that were matched for the HAWAII array for FANIRCAM. (FANNICAM)

Analysis of InGaAs linear arrays 1.7micron (bare, as the array has no gain control)

Comparing the linear and 320x240 data (same problem as above)

TA Class

This contains some random thing I did to illustrate the use of Starry Night to students I TAed.

Quick tutorial to determining Alt-Az/Equatorial coordinates in Starry Night Backyard

M31, The Great Andromeda Galaxy, 14.7'x14.7', central area, taken at FMO Dec, 2002 for my final ASTR 313 project in undergrad.	M81, Bode's Galaxy, 14.7'x14.7', central area, taken at FMO Dec, 2002 for my final ASTR 313 project in undergrad. Very noisy.

Heather received her Masters of Science in Astronomy at UVA in 2005. She also recieved her BA in Astronomy-Physics at UVA previously (2004). She has gone on to a career in Hawaii as an Operating Assistant for W.M. Keck Observatroy. Aloha!
