Jenifer Haselgrove

Jenifer Leech (née Wheildon Brown; later Haselgrove; 3 August 1930 – 13 March 2015) was a British physicist and computer scientist. She is most noted for her formulation of ray tracing equations in a cold magneto-plasma, now widely known in the radio science community[1] as Haselgrove's Equations.[2][3]

Please enjoy this tribute to Jenifer Haselgrove and her achievements. In collating and researching for this work, we have been inspired by many of the great minds that have brought us so far in radio science, but none more than Jenifer Haselgrove and those around her at Cambridge, which led to her famous formulation and her use of one of mankind's first computers to solve it.[p. 16]
