| My prefered research topic is the investigation of Particle-Accelerating Colliding-Wind Binaries following multi-wavelength approaches, with some interest too in the study of bow shocks of massive runaways. I am interested in shock physics with emphasis on non-thermal processes. My contributions to the study of PACWB come mainly from X-ray and radio observations, along with various studies dedicated to their multiplicity using various techniques. I am especially interested in the study of populations of stellar objects responsible for significant particle acceleration, with the objective to address the question of their contribution to production of galactic cosmic rays. In this context, I am the initiator of the PANTERA-Stars initiative. |
