Professor Blanton’s primary field research focuses on clusters of galaxies, particularly using the Chandra X-ray Observatory to study X-ray emissions from the hot intracluster medium (ICM). Her work explores the mutual effects of the ICM on central galaxy radio sources, which are powered by supermassive black holes that inject large quantities of energy into the ICM, helping to address important questions regarding 'cooling flow' systems. Professor Blanton employs a multi-wavelength approach to her studies on clusters, utilizing data across optical, near-infrared, X-ray, and radio wavelengths. Her research also interests her in using radio sources as tracers for clusters of galaxies at high redshifts for cosmological studies. She is affiliated with the Interdisciplinary Cosmology Group at Boston University, which includes members from the departments of Astronomy, Physics, and Data Sciences.
Department of Law offers JD, LLM, and Master's in Study of Tax Law.
