Terahertz Arrays for Heterodyne Receivers. A video submission for Science Magazine's Dance Your PhD Contest 2014.... This PhD research studies heterodyne arrays with superconducting mixers to observe the formation of stars in giant molecular clouds. The video is divided into 3 movements using a combination of improvisation, modern, contemporary, and ballet. The first movement uses four dancers to show how particles move through the lifecycle of gas clouds in the interstellar medium (ISM).
