About

Chris Ashall is an Assistant Professor at Virginia Tech in the United States. His research primarily focuses on supernovae and their properties, as demonstrated by his recent publications on Type Ia supernovae, including observations of their light curves and spectral evolution. Additionally, he investigates plasma instabilities in relation to radioactive transients and the dynamics of energetic transients such as tidal disruptions of high mass stars.
