Amy Davis - Student Profile
Amy Davis (She/Her)
Current Research:
Hunting (new) RABBITTs
My research involves applying the R-Matrix with time-dependence (RMT) code which was developed here at Queen’s. RMT is a massively parallel code which can model electronic processes in atoms and molecules that occur on the attosecond timescale ( $1 as = 10^{-18} s$ ).
I am working to extend an existing technique called RABBITT (reconstruction of attosecond beating by interference of two-photon transitions), both to deepen our understanding of ultrafast dynamics, but also to inform next generation experiments.
Biography:
I graduated from Queen's in 2024 with first class honours in Applied Mathematics and Physics. My master's project involved running numerical simulations to investigate high harmonic generation in hydrogen.
Research Interests:
- Attosecond physics
- Ultra-fast physics
- R-matrix theory
Supervisors:
Dr Andrew Brown and Professor Hugo van der Hart
