Joaquín Díaz Peña is a current PhD student at CSP and the Department of Electrical Engineering. Previously he was a student at University of Chile working on the on board magnetometer for the first CubeSat designed and lunch in Chile, both as an Undergraduate in Electrical Engineering and a Master’s of Science. His research currently focuses on dynamics and energy transport/dissipation in Earths polar cap with a multi-sensor approach. This includes de use of radars, all sky cameras, satellites, ground magnetometers, and others to find ionosphere flow channels and polar cap patches that can help to understand the dynamics of the ionosphere.
Research Interests: ionosphere, magnetosphere, aurora, science hardware (radar, cameras, ground stations), and satellite missions.
