This week’s (virtual) Undergraduate STEM Research Seminar will feature Computer Science major Mina Kemp. Mina is developing software that utilizes the open source 3D visualization software Blender as a front end to a Monte Carlo simulation code used to calculate the behavior of ultracold neutrons in fundamental physics experiments. In her talk A Graphical User Interface-Based Framework for Ultracold Neutron Monte Carlo Simulations, Mina will describe her approach to developing an intuitive and powerful interface aimed in part at reducing the barrier for new researchers who wish to utilize the simulation code. The seminar will be this Friday, November 13th at 4pm. It is geared for undergraduates from any STEM major, but graduate students and faculty are also encouraged to attend! Contact Dr. Holley (aholley@tntech.edu) for connection information to the Zoom session. Visit the seminar webpage to see Mina’s full abstract and the current schedule for upcoming talks.
