Research Interests

I study astrophysical objects using both, computational and analytical methods. I work on hydrodynamical simulations of binary white dwarf (BWD) and binary neutron star (BNS) mergers and transients obtained from them. I am also interested in combining information from gravitational wave data analysis and several physical constraints obtained from them. I am a member of LIGO-Virgo collaboration and Cosmic Explorer Design and Study Team participating in enriching our astrophysical knowledge by performing hydrodynamical simulations as well as gravitational-wave data analysis. More specifically, I am working on hydrodynamical modeling of the kilonova ejecta and astrophysical implications from parametric Bayesian inferences using individual gravitational wave sources.
