About Me
I am a Postdoc researcher in the Institute for Theoretical Physics at the Heidelberg University in Germany. My work focuses on various questions related to particle collisions at the CERN-LHC and BNL-RHIC experiments. My research focuses on the description of particle collisions using Quantum Chromodynamics, jets, finite-temperature, and non-equilibrium field theories. I contribute to several ongoing measurements by providing predictions and introducing new techniques such as artificial intelligence.
Interests
- High-energy heavy-ion collisions
