Area(s) of Interest
I am a scientist with an interest in applied science, instrumentation, R&D and Multiwavelength Astrophysics. I specialize in observational astrophysics and instrumentation in particular photometry of CV stars and stellar occultations. I also work with high-energy astrophysics, in particular Fermi-LAT data analysis.On the instrumentation side, my work entails R&D of observational astronomy research equipment, telescope interface systems, software, automation, optimization and maintenance of telescope systems.I also work with Digital Planetarium Systems and have worked with Science Education Centre`s.On a part time I also share a curiosity for energy efficiency and building and operating solar cars in an educational and competitive environment.
