Sara (Brin) Rosenthal

Brin is majoring in physics and minoring in music as a rising senior here at Cornell.� For the past two summers she worked with Herschel Rabitz at Princeton University investigating quantum control theory.� Her research was based on exploring the interaction between molecular forces and dynamic observables, by analyzing the sensitivity of certain input variables to slight changes in the Hamiltonian.�

She has only recently joined the Schwab group, and is enjoying becoming more familiar with low temperature physics.� So far she has been designing components for the group's new refrigerator.�

Brin also plays flute in the Cornell University Wind Ensemble, and likes to run long distance (when Ithaca's weather permits...that is).�
