Summary
Former research associate in the Department of Physics in Umeå under the supervision of Dr. Herbert Gunell and in London with Prof. M. Galand
My expertise covers the exospheres of terrestrial planets, the plasma environments of comets, and recently of Moons such as Ganymede.
My breadth of knowledge covers plasma and kinetic theory, kinetic modelling of neutrals and plasma, data analysis, and plasma instruments.
I recently lead one of the chapters of Comets III on comets and their ionosphere, to be published in 2023.
