Principal Interests:
Cosmology — cosmological dark age and reionization, dark energy, estimation of cosmological parameters. Supermassive black holes — accretion disk geometries, jets, the structure of active galactic nuclei. Star formation — structure and gas dynamics in close proximity to high-mass young stars. Astronomical masers. Interferometry. Signal processing. High Performance Computing. Massively parallel computing (GPGPU).CV upload:
