About
Dr Shaikh is currently a postdoctoral researcher at SSL, UC Berkeley, USA. His research interest is in microscale and macroscale processes in solar and astrophysical plasma from the experimental point of view. In particular, he works on Solar eruptions (e.g., solar wind, coronal mass ejection, corotating interaction region), space weather (e.g., geomagnetic storm, cosmic ray modulation), Plasma waves (e.g., Alfven wave, Electrostatic waves, etc.), plasma turbulence, and temperature anisotropy & associated instabilities. His research uses in-situ data from several spacecraft (e.g., Parker Solar Probe (PSP), ACE, Wind, STEREO, OMNI, GOES, MMS) to understand these processes. Dr Shaikh is enthusiastic about learning new skills and increasing global collaboration in order to improve my scientific perspective and work on frontline scientific problems.
