Nick Langellier
Postdoctoral Fellow
Ph.D. Physics, Harvard University, 2020
B.S. Engineering Physics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011
Nick’s research focuses on precision radial velocity detection of habitable exoplanets around sun-like stars and machine learning applied to precision measurements.
Fun Fact: Nick loves rock climbing. His favorite climb was a 550 foot (180 meter) rock face in the Yunnan province of China called “Fly Me to the Moon”!
A paper on Detection Limits of Low-mass, Long-period Exoplanets Using Gaussian Processes Applied to HARPS-N Solar Radial Velocities has been published in the Astronomical Journal!
August was a great month for the Walsworth group — we celebrated a trifecta of thesis defenses! Hearty congratulations to Dr. Nick Langellier, Dr. Matthew Turner and Dr. Connor Hart.
