Dr. Christopher T. Parzyck
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioMy research interests lie at the intersection of materials science and condensed matter physics. I work on thin film synthesis of oxide and metal systems by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). Applications range from answering fundamental physics questions about high temperature superconductivity to developing practical synthesis routines and new materials for next generation electron sources. In addition, I work on projects involving spectroscopic probes of thin film systems, including angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and resonant soft x-ray scattering (RSXS) measurements.

Weiyu Qian
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioWeiyu Qian is a postdoctoral researcher at the PULSE Institute. He is focusing on the spectroscopic characterization of fleeting species and chemical reaction paradigm. He received Walter Benjamin Fellowship from DFG. During his time in Germany, he independently drove the discovery of N6 from initial conception to final execution, performing both the experimental synthesis and the computational analyses (10.1038/s41586-025-09032-9, Nature 642, 356–360 (2025)). Drawing on his observations of the academic ecosystem, he also published a correspondence regarding the power imbalances in adviser–student relationships (10.1038/d41586-026-01776-2, Nature 654, 290 (2026)).

Monika Salesh
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioI am a researcher in the High Energy Density Science (HEDS) Division at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, where I work on high-pressure science using diamond anvil cells (DACs). My research focuses on studying the behavior and properties of materials under extreme pressures and temperatures, with an emphasis on understanding structural and physical transformations under these conditions.
I completed my PhD in Materials Science from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay), India, in June 2026. My doctoral research involved advanced materials characterization and the investigation of structure–property relationships using a range of nanoscale and bulk characterization techniques.
At SLAC, I am leveraging my background in materials science and advanced characterization to explore matter under extreme conditions and contribute to a deeper understanding of the physics underlying fusion-related processes.
