I use the SMA, augmented with my polarimetry hardware, to study
the polarization of various objects. My thesis work focused on
Sagittarius A*, the black hole at the center of our galaxy.
Some links related to my research:
My thesis on Sagittarius A* and the
SMA polarimeter.
The first paper using
the SMA polarimetry system, observations of the polarization of
Sagittarius A* at 340 GHz. It appeared in the 20 March 2006 issue
of The Astrophysical Journal.
