Graduate Student
Education:
- (2021) B.S. in Physics at UC Riverside
Bio:
Rey is pursuing their PhD in theoretical physics at UCSB. Before coming to UCSB, they worked for a year at Los Alamos National Laboratory on a computational study of laser-trapped Bose-Einstein condensates. Before joining the Vlcek Group, they worked on DFT studies of quantum defects under Chris Van de Walle at UCSB.
Research:
Rey's research interests lie in theoretical and computational studies of quantum dynamics and novel phases, including non-equilibrium behavior. Their current work involves solving Kadanoff-Baym equations to study the non-equilibrium behavior of quantum systems.
