Welcome to Dominic's Page

Hello, I am Dominic Ludovici. I graduated from University High School in Morgantown in May of 2007. Currently, I am a freshman undergraduate student studying Physics and working with the Pulsar Group. I have been working with the Pulsar Group since June 2006.

The main area of my work has been with the 610MHz pulsar survey of the Galactic plane using the GMRT (Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope). Thus far, this survey has been successful in finding three new radio pulsars! During June of 2007, I worked at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) in Green Bank, West Virginia. During my stay there I assisted in taking data for the 350 MHz drift scan pulsar survey. Also during my stay at Green Bank, I re-examined single pulse data from the Parkes Multi-beam survey in order to try to find more Rotating Radio Transients.
