HIGH ENERGY- research topics include:
Gamma-ray bursts, neutron stars with special focus on magnetars, accretion disks, X-ray binaries, ultra-luminous X-ray sources, mergers of binary compact objects, gravitational waves and their electromagnetic counterparts, tidal disruption events.
COSMOLOGY - research topics include:
Gravitational lensing, interstellar medium and dust in high-redshift galaxies, foregrounds for CMB and 21 cm measurements, growth of supermassive black holes, axions.
EXOPLANETS - research topics include:
Magnetohydrodynamics and turbulence in the atmospheres of hot Jupiters. Dynamical effects from stellar encounters on planetary systems.
N-BODY DYNAMICS - research topics include:
Scattering in the small-N regime with applications ranging from supermassive black hole dynamics in galactic centers, to production of hypervelocity stars, to binary compact object formation, to exoplanetary architectures in dense star clusters.
