Introducing: Randy Cooper

Hi everyone!   I'm Randy Cooper, an official blogger for the Crust09 conference.  I graduated from Harvard last May and am now a postdoctoral fellow at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics.  My research interests include type I X-ray bursts and superbursts; you'll learn about my most recent work on superburst ignition on Monday morning.  My non-scientific interests are fitness, reading nonfiction books, listening to jazz and metal, and playing drums.


By the way, I encourage all speakers to be prepared for Bob's inexorable question: "What one thing would you like astronomers/nuclear theorists to take away from your talk?"
