Pascal Saint-Hilaire (Full) Research Physicist at the Space Sciences Laboratory (SSL) of the University of California, Berkeley (UCB) pascal(at)ssl.berkeley.edu

Research: My primary area of expertise is data analysis and interpretation of solar flare emissions, particularly at X-ray and radio wavelengths. I have also published a number of research papers on other topics: multi-frequency solar radio emissions with the Allen Telescope Array, sungrazer comets, search for extra-galactic radio transients, diagnostics from Thomson-polarized light above the solar limb, and Precise Formation Flying.

Hardware/missions: I have been a member of the RHESSI (Ramaty High Energy Spectroscopic Imager) team. I have worked on the CINEMA cubesat (circularly-polarized S-band patch antenna design & development), Parker Solar Probe RFS instrument (Polyphase Filter Bank optimization), and the CubeSat Radio Interferometry Experiment (CURIE -- mission design). I am the Principal Investigator of the NASA GRIPS (Gamma-Ray Imager/Polarimeter for Solar flares) high altitude balloon payload, and PI of the SHARP (Solar HARd x-ray Polarimeter) instrument on the PADRE (solar PolArization and Directivity X-Ray Experiment) mission.
