Theoretical Physics
Research Statement
I am a theoretical physicist at Rutgers University with a primary interest in addressing fundamental physics problems through cosmological and astronomical observations. Much of my work has concerned the cosmic microwave background radiation and what we can learn from studying the small fluctuations in its temperature and polarization. A related area of interest is constraining properties and distribution of dark matter through gravitational lensing and galaxy dynamics. I also work on gravitational radiation and gauge theory formulations of gravitation.
