Bio


I am a Physics PhD Candidate performing research in X-ray Astrophysics within KIPAC and the XOC group. My primary interests surround the evolutionary history of galaxy clusters traced by X-ray observations of the Intracluster Medium. I measure the dynamical, thermodynamical, and chemical properties of clusters as a function of spatial scale and redshift to test models of self-similar evolution and chemical enrichment in the presence of feedback from sources such as AGN.
