High-energy astrophysics is the domain of the most violent and cataclysmic phenomena in the Universe. It covers a large variety of objects at different scales: Galactic sources of high-energy radiation like pulsars and their nebulae, expanding remnants of supernova and binary systems like microquasars. Many extragalactic galaxies are hosting a massive black hole in their center and mass accretion and ejection lead to violent outbursts of these active galactic nuclei. I am studying these phenomena using information provided by various messengers: electromagnetic radiation (also known as light) up to the highest energies, cosmic rays, neutrinos and gravitational waves. I firmly believe that the combination of these observations has the power to elucidate some of the most persistent mysteries in nature...
I'll try to keep up with the latest developments and discoveries in the field of high-energy astrophysics and astroparticle physics via some blog entries... See the NEWS sections...
