Hi there!
Welcome to my website! I’m a Black Hole Initiative Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University, studying how matter moves around black holes and gets shot out as jets in active galactic nuclei and Xray binaries using computer simulations.
I perform black hole simulations using the GPU-accelerated general relativistic (GR) magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) code H-AMR (Liska et al. 2018; Chatterjee et al. 2019) and then use the GR raytracing radiation transfer code BHOSS (Younsi et al. 2019, in prep; Porth et al. 2019) to produce synthetic radio maps to compare to actual observations.
