Julian Kop spent the summer of 2023 at Pacific Lutheran University looking up at the night sky and the stars. Kop earned an opportunity to do summer research with professors Sean O’Neill and Katrina Hay at PLU’s W.M. Keck Observatory , working some nights between…
summer research with professors Sean O’Neill and Katrina Hay at PLU’s W.M. Keck Observatory, working some nights between 8 p.m. and 1 a.m., learning how to operate the equipment, including the 16-inch telescope, and talking about space. It was a culmination of a childhood passion for astronomy and astrophysics. “My first class at PLU was a physics course with Dr. Bret Underwood,” said Kop. “I knew it was going to be difficult, and it was. But the new experience of a small class with a professor who

Physics is the scientific study of the material universe at its most fundamental level. A physicist might study the inner workings of atoms and nuclei, the size and age of the universe, the behavior
and communications; they heat hydrogen gases to temperatures above those of the sun’s core in the attempt to develop nuclear fusion as an energy resource. From astrophysics to nuclear physics to optics and crystal structure, physics encompasses some of the most fundamental and exciting ideas ever considered.Why Study Physics at PLU?The Department of Physics offers bachelor of science and bachelor of arts degrees in physics, a bachelor of science degree in applied physics, and a bachelor of arts in

Did you know that PLU has an observatory ? See how students and professors spent this summer learning about the stars. “Capturing astronomy images is rewarding but can be challenging,” said professor of physics Katrina Hay. “It requires long exposures or stacked images, focusing in…
interns discuss celestial image processing. Kop is making light curves, showing how the brightness of several variable stars changes over time. Ordaz captured images of globular clusters, constructing diagrams based on temperature and luminosity to estimate the age of these ancient clusters.STUDENT VOICES: Kop and Ordaz share their summer research from the W. M. Keck Observatory Julian Kop ’24 classifies variable star systems, data processing and modeling. “Astronomy and Astrophysics have been my

“Capturing astronomy images is rewarding but can be challenging,” said professor of physics Katrina Hay. “It requires long exposures or stacked images, focusing in cold dark conditions, climbing a ladder to access the telescope, tracking objects as they move across the sky, and merging several…
share their summer research from the W. M. Keck Observatory Julian Kop ’24 classifies variable star systems, data processing and modeling. “Astronomy and Astrophysics have been my childhood and career interest since I was an elementary student, and engaging in undergraduate astronomy research kept me motivated and inspired throughout this entire summer,” reflected senior physics major Julian Kop. Two star systems, RR Lyrae and 68 Herculis, exhibit remarkable fluctuations in brightness, rendering
