Where I am now.

I am currently a postdoctoral fellow in Astrophysics at the Institute for Advanced Study. My CV is here.

Research interests:

  • Outflows from compact objects -- black holes and neutron stars;
  • Dynamics; in particular, in relation to
  • extrasolar planets, protoplanetary disks and circumstellar debris disks (here you can find a popular article about extrasolar planets);
  • Active Galactic Nuclei at all wavelengths (here you can find a nice popular article about black holes, Active Galactic Nuclei and their luminous subclass - quasars);
  • Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies and physics of interstellar medium in them;
  • Multi-wavelength surveys and data mining (e.g., Sloan Digital Sky Survey).
    The detailed description of my research is here.
