I am an independent researcher which means that I have to keep my day job of avionics programming while I work on my research in the evening. Some of my research includes the Galois classification and the finding of all rational roots of the parameterized eigen-polynomials of the nuclear electric quadrupole interaction Hamiltonian. I am also working on the evaluation of multi parameter integrals that arise from multi-scattering problems. I am also expanding some nuclear quadrupole calculations. I am also interested in elliptic and hyerelliptic curves. My primary software tools include Mathematica and the online version of MAGMA. Some other interest includes HO model railroading which is dormant for the moment. ©
