Dr. Camilla Pacifici
Senior Astronomical Data Scientist, STScI
Dr. Pacifici is an expert on spectral energy distribution modeling of galaxies. She has created models which take into account low to high resolution spectra of galaxies (emission lines, absorption lines, continua), complex star-formation histories motivated by the hierarchical universe, and more sophisticated dust models. Her approach to fitting data is fully Bayesian. Dr Pacifici's recent results on the star-formation histories of quiescent galaxies strongly suggest two separate quenching mechanisms for low and high mass galaxies.
