Samriddhi Sankar Maity

👨 About Me

I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Georgia State University, currently working at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. My research focuses on Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), the Sun’s most powerful eruptions, with a particular interest in understanding the unexpected expansions as they propagate through the solar system. Prior to moving to the United States, I completed my PhD in India through a collaboration between the Indian Institute of Science and the Indian Institute of Astrophysics, where I studied the origins of solar eruptions. I also had the opportunity to serve as a SCOSTEP Visiting Fellow at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, investigating the magnetic structure of CMEs as they travel from the Sun to Earth.
