Nicole Pothier McGillivray received her B.S. in Meteorology/Climatology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2010, an M.S. in Planetary Science from Hampton University in 2012, and an M.S. in Space Science from the University of Michigan in 2014. While at Michigan, Nicole was awarded the 2014 NASA Earth and Space Science Fellowship for her proposal to utilize a data mining tool to identify magnetospheric flux ropes in the Earth’s magnetosphere, in order to assess the internal structure of flux ropes and their interaction with surrounding environment.Nicole joined the team at EMA in 2015, and provides expertise in space environment characterization, spacecraft plasma charging, lightning direct effects, etc..

Abstract

Spacecraft charging is a well-known problem for space vehicles.  Advanced evaluation of spacecraft charging threats to a particular mission can drastically reduce the risk for space programs.  It is particularly important... [ view full abstract ]
