May's actual thesis was called "A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud."

My professor mentioned it in the observational astronomy class I took in college. For anyone wondering, zodiacal dust is the stuff left over from the protoplanetary disc that didn't become a planet. Any observations made along the plane of the solar system is looking through that dust and astronomers need to account for it in various ways.
