Research interests

I am fascinated by extreme physical processes and outlandish (theoretical) physics. My main focus is on Theoretical Particle Physics. My goal is to create cohesive and intuitive frameworks for various physical processes to take place. I take specific pleasure in discussing with peers how to make sense of certain equations or how a process can exhibit a surprising observational signature. My current focus lies on Beyond Standard Model physics and in particular sterile neutrino models and their phenomenology. My additional interests span a large range of subjects, including:

· Theoretical (Astro-)Particle Physics

· Beyond Standard Model extensions (dark matter, sterile neutrinos)

· Symmetries and asymmetries in the universe

· Cosmic ray production

· Physics of the early universe

· Cosmology

· (Quantum) Field Theory

· General Relativity

· Compact objects (black holes, neutron stars)
