PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS:
Dr. Bailey did his dissertation work in atomic physics with an emphasis on charged particle interactions with helium and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectroscopy. He has recently developed a cold temperature vacuum system for the investigation of ice crystal growth over a broad range of temperatures, pressures and humidities. This system is particularly suited for the investigation of ice growth under cirrus conditions which is the current focus of his research. Additional research efforts include the study of the effects of contaminants on the habit of ice crystals. Future projects currently under development include field studies of cirrus ice, laboratory investigation of radiative properties of ice crystals, and the laboratory simulation of lightning discharges.
RESEARCH AREAS:
- Cirrus clouds, ice growth, lightning, polar stratospheric ice particles, physical meteorology
