Biography

I am a theoretical astrophysicist focusing on the fundamental physics of compact objects. My research investigates the interior dynamics and composition of neutron stars by modeling the nuclear equation of state. I explore how exotic phases of matter, such as quark matter and hyperons, behave under extreme densities and how they influence stellar oscillation modes. My work also examines the potential interactions between dark matter and neutron stars. By applying astrophysical constraints to these models, I aim to identify unique signatures of exotic matter in gravitational wave data, revealing how matter behaves in the universe's most extreme environments.
