Welcome on my homepage !

I am an astrophysicist working mostly on neutron stars which are the remnants of massive stars that exploded in supernovae.

Neutron stars are very dense and have a high energy output influencing their environment with powerful particle winds, magnetic fields and electromagnetic radiation. I work on various aspects of neutron stars using satellite and ground-based observations from X-rays to radio wavelengths. If you want to learn more about my research please look here.

I am also interested in the human impact on the environment and the role of scientists in conservation. You can find some links to this and other topics here.
