Research
In general terms, I am interested in high-energy astrophysics, with a current focus on gamma-ray bursts (GRB). Some topics I'm interested in include:
- Prompt GRB emission mechanisms and particle acceleration
- Fundamental differences between short and long GRBs, based on prompt and afterglow properties
- Physics of compact objects (black holes and neutron stars)
- Magnetohydrodynamics of accretion flows and relativistic jets
- Electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational waves
- Shock formation, evolution and propagation in different astrophysical scenarios
- High-performance computing, algorithm development
