Research

I am interested in and working on theoretical astrophysics of neutron stars and black holes, where strong relativistic gravity is in action.

So far I have mainly studied oscillations of rapidly rotating stars with general relativistic gravity and of accretion disks around black holes.

Current topics of my interest include:

• oscillations of rotating neutron stars
• dynamics of accretion disks around black holes
• equilibrium configurations and stability
  of magnetized stars
• mechanisms of dynamical instabilities in
  astrophysical rotating fluid
• gravitational wave from supernova explosion
