Murray Brightman

I am a staff scientist at the NuSTAR Science Operations Center, part of the team that operates and maintains the NuSTAR telescope. My current research interest is in X-ray transients. These are sources of X-rays that come and go that could be black holes or neutron stars undergoing a brief period of accretion, the merger of two neutron stars, supernovae, or flares from stars in our Galaxy.
