Dr. Jackiewicz is a researcher in the field of solar and stellar physics. He studies
helioseismology, which involves using solar surface oscillations (sunquakes) to probe the Sun
and determine its internal structure and dynamics. His work employs a
combination of high-resolution observations, local helioseismology
techniques, large-scale numerical simulations, and quantitative analysis of
synoptic maps of subsurface solar properties. His primary goals are to
address the root causes of solar magnetic activity and quantitatively
establish physical relationships between subsurface properties and the
magnetic activity observed in the solar chromosphere and corona.
He also works in stellar seismology and is a member of the Kepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium.
See the Solar, Stellar, and Exoplanet research group page.
Dr. Jackiewicz is working with fourth-year graduate student
Michael Kirk on image analysis
of solar flares, third-year student Kyle DeGrave on helioseismic inversions, and first-year student Jean McKeever on asteroseismology using Kepler.
Dr. Jackiewicz is teaching Astronomy 110G and Astronomy 301V in the spring semester of 2012.
