Accreting Neutron stars
Why just look when you can observe..? – Sherlock Holmes
Hi, I'm Gayathri Raman. I am an Assitant Research professor in the field of observational X-ray astrophysics at Pennsylvania State University. I am a member of the Swift GUANO group that works out of the Swift moc building in State College. My current research interests include understanding the timing and spectral properties of accreting neutron stars and their complex environments, fast transient phenomena like Gamma Ray Bursts and Fast Radio Bursts.
