Nathan Phillips is a Ph.D. candidate in Aerospace Engineering at Texas A&M with eight years of hands-on experience spanning hypersonics, laser diagnostics, plasma physics, and nonlinear optics. He researches high-vibrational states of molecular oxygen to better characterize nonequilibrium post-shock environments and operates Class IV pulsed lasers and custom optical systems for advanced laser-induced fluorescence studies. Nathan has designed and built a 13.56 MHz RF plasma cell and contributed practical hardware and data-processing tools—like MATLAB schlieren analysis scripts—used to validate high-enthalpy tunnel tests. His background combines rigorous academic performance (BS and ongoing PhD with 4.0 GPA) with practical lab operations from maintaining Mach 20 and Mach 6 tunnels to IT and hardware support, giving him a rare mix of experimental, troubleshooting, and systems-level skills.
