Featured Projects

Dynamical systems analysis of an Einstein–Cartan ekpyrotic nonsingular bounce cosmology

  • Published in General Relativity and Gravitation (2026). Dynamical-systems analysis of a homogeneous Einstein–Cartan bounce model with bounce-basin and Lyapunov analysis.

A Uniform Chandra Timing Search for X-ray Pulsars in the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds

  • Archival timing survey using ACIS and HRC data, semicoherent Z-squared statistic methods, and empirical-null calibration across the Magellanic Clouds.

Motorized Radio Telescope

  • A custom-built 1420 MHz hydrogen-line radio telescope with software, control electronics, and end-to-end instrumentation development.

Who I am

I'm Jackson Stingley. I work across theoretical and observational physics, with a focus on cosmology, high-energy astrophysics, and instrumentation. My recent work includes a single-author paper on nonsingular bounce cosmology in Einstein-Cartan gravity, published in General Relativity and Gravitation (2026), and a ~25-year archival Chandra pulsar timing survey of the Magellanic Clouds, nearing submission. I also design and build hardware, including radio astronomy instruments, control systems, and experimental setups, when a project calls for it. This site collects the research and projects I've spent the most time on.
