I study astrophysical objects using both, computational and analytical methods. I have obtained my Ph. D. in Computational Astrophysics from UMASS Dartmouth with Prof. Robert Fisher where I discovered a new possible mechanism for the formation of Type Ia supernovae from binary white dwarf mergers. I am studying the evolution of post-merger binary WD merger evolution and their outcomes such as accretion-induced-collapse to form neutron stars. In the past, I was Max Planck postdoctoral fellow at International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, Bengaluru, India.
Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Eberly College of Science, Department of Physics, Pennsylvania State University, USA. I am a member of LIGO-Virgo collaboration 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 kilonova ejecta and astrophysical implications from parametric Bayesian inferences using individual gravitational wave sources. I have provided slightly more explanations of my research work here.
My CV is available here.
