معرفی
Jasper S. Halekas is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Iowa. His research focuses on experimental space physics and the development of spaceflight instrumentation to study charged particles in the solar system.
- Institution: University of Iowa
- Department: Physics and Astronomy
- Role: Instrument lead/scientist for MAVEN, Parker Solar Probe, and TRACERS spacecraft; Deputy PI for THEMIS-ARTEMIS and Lunar Vertex missions
His work involves designing instruments to measure the impact of solar wind on planetary systems and analyzing space plasma data. Students under his guidance gain experience in spaceflight hardware development, programming, and spacecraft data analysis.
- Key Research Areas:
- Space plasma physics around moons, planets, and the interplanetary medium
- High-resolution charged particle measurement instrumentation
On-campus facilities include a laboratory for spaceflight hardware assembly and calibration. He earned his PhD from the University of California, Berkeley.
