CEDAR email: Graduate school opportunities at New Mexico Tech

[Caitano da Silva]

Dear Colleagues,

The Department of Physics at New Mexico Tech (NMT) invites highly-motivated students to apply for our Masters and Doctoral programs. The Department has three main areas of concentration: Atmospheric Physics, Astrophysics, and Physics Instrumentation. Pertinent to this email list is the research done at the Langmuir Laboratory for Atmospheric Research. We encourage applicants interested in the following areas to submit an application:

* Lightning research instrumentation (lightning location and remote sensing);
* Lightning physics via experimental techniques (e.g., triggered lightning) and computational modeling;
* Lightning and thunderstorm effects in the near-Earth space environment;
* High-energy radiation emitted by lightning and thunderstorms;
* Laboratory plasma discharge experiments in support of lightning research;
* Lightning mapping array (LMA) applications in thunderstorm meteorology.

Please forward this message to students interested in pursuing a graduate degree in the U.S. with emphasis on Atmospheric and Space Electricity. The deadline for Fall/2022 admissions is January 15, 2022. NMT is hosting an info session next week to address student questions about the application process (see detailed info below). Also, if you would like to helps us spread the word, please consider hanging this poster in your hallway: https://bit.ly/3nDaczj

Best regards,
-Caitano da Silva
