Suhail is a Ph.D. student at Rice University in Applied Physics and is affiliated with the Physics & Astronomy Department, specifically with Prof. Anthony Chan research group (Suhail's advisor). His primary research type is computational, and is interested in plasma in the near Earth space for their dangerous effects on satellites and astronauts. Suhail is currently contributing to two projects. The first primary project is the K2 computational model, developed by Prof. Chan, and Dr. Scot Elkington (University of Colorado) along with contributions from many other institutions: University of Iowa, Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), and Boston University. The K2 aims to simulate relativistic charged particles in near Earth space; specifically, in the radiation belts. Suhail's work also includes gathering satellites data, i.e., from NASA missions such as the Radiation Belts Space Probes (RBSP), to feed, investigate and compare the computational results. Suhail's second project is building a computational code to test the quasi-linear diffusion hypothesis. The code simulates both the full particle trajectory and the particle guiding center trajectory (which is more efficient for time scales considerably larger than the gyro period). These charged particles in Suhail's simulation are influenced by the Earth's magnetic field (approximated as a centered tilted dipole field), and the electric and magnetic fields of the ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves which results in diffusion. Poincare plots (surface of cross section) have also been exploited for their usefulness in distinguishing chaotic (deterministic) systems from fully stochastic (random) systems.
