Present PositionResearch Associate ProfessorJoint Center for Astrophysics Department of Physics University of Maryland, Baltimore County GLAST Brief BioDave Davis is a graduate from the University of Maryland Department of Astronomy. His thesis work was at Goddard Space Flight Center and was directed by Dr. Richard Mushotzky. His thesis work involved searching an X-ray flux limited sample of galaxy clusters for X-ray substructure. Other research areas while at GSFC were the X-ray properties of poor groups of galaxies and he was part of the team that discovered hot X-ray gas in the NGC 2300 group. His is also active in the determining the X-ray properties of moderate redshift clusters.Educational BackgroundB.S., University of Alabama 1981M.S., Univeristy of Florida 1983 Ph.D. University of Maryland 1994 Research InterestsClusters of galaxies: X-ray substructure, enrichment of the ICMGroups of Galaxies: X-ray properties, evolution and formation Elliptical Galaxies: X-ray properties, enrichment and evolution Current ProjectsGroup studies with XMM-NewtonBinary Cluster studies with Chandra Elliptical galaxies with Chandra Selected Publications25) Mulchaey, J.
