Research Interests

• Linear theory analysis of large-scale structures (LSS) within the context of different dark matter models
• Statistical analysis of the present LSS clustering distribution
• Hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy clusters for analyzing X-ray cluster properties
• Parallelization of a cosmological N-body/SPH code for studying galaxy formation and cosmological structures
