RESEARCH INTERESTS

I am interested in the formation, dynamical evolution, and habitability of terrestrial exoplanets and stellar evolution. I analyze observational data of stellar clusters and use n-body codes.  N-body codes simulate the graviational interaction of n number of particles and allow for other forces to be modeled as well.  I implement the newest physical models into n-body codes so the most accurate simulations may be achieved.  I consider environments around Sun-like stars, M-dwarf stars, and binary stars.
