Charlotte Goetz

Assistant Professor

Department: Mathematics, Physics and Electrical Engineering

Research Themes and Scholarly Interests

I study the magnetospheres of unmagnetized bodies in the solar system. My emphasis in this lies on the cometary plasma environment, where I use data analysis and models to better understand the plasma structures and regions and wave environment.
