Research

My research interests include Astrophysics and Cosmology. I study the large scale structure of the universe, developing and implementing dynamical and statistical tools. In particular I analyze proper distance surveys to find the distribution of mass in the Universe. I am looking at the kinetic Sunayev-Zeldovich signature of clusters to study dark energy and the evolution of the Hubble parameter and the distribution, properties and substructure of void-supercluster network. I also study the effects of neutrino mass on the power spectrum of mass fluctuation in the linear and non-linear regimes.

Research interests:

  • Cosmology
  • Large-Scale-Structure of the Universe
  • Cosmic Flows
  • Neutrino Mass
  • Power Spectrum
  • Galaxies
