Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Lacey A. West is a researcher at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. Her work focuses on the study of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) and young black hole and neutron star systems within nearby star-forming galaxies. West has investigated the emission deficits of HMXBs in luminous infrared galaxies, specifically examining the circumnuclear starburst ring in NGC 7552. She has also studied the X-ray spectral energy distribution of the low-metallicity starburst galaxy VV 114 and analyzed data from NuSTAR to observe young black hole and neutron star systems in M33. West has 8 publications and has been cited 23 times, with an h-index of 3.
