Astrophysics

Our focus areas are:

  • Theoretical modeling and numerical simulations of supernovae and remnants, gamma-ray bursts, gravitational radiation from supernovae and colliding black holes, accretion onto compact objects and planetary nebulae
  • Shock waves, particle acceleration and cosmic rays
  • Neutrinos and nucleosynthesis in supernovae and gamma-ray bursts
  • Evolution of galaxies by studying the extended gaseous halos around them 
  • Radio, infrared, optical and x-ray observations of supernova remnants, pulsar-wind nebulae and planetary nebulae
