I am a Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Dartmouth College. My areas of expertise include stars (especially cataclysmic binary stars), astrometry, and spherical astronomy.

Some useful astronomical software I have written is linked here and here.

I am new at this -- my intention is to help edit articles in which I have some expertise. I expect to contribute only occasionally.
