Project Portfolio

Below, I have included some of my academic works, as well as other topics I find particularly interesting. If you enjoy the read or have comments, I am always happy to discuss.

Currently, I am working on an analog model for a specific Dark Matter candidate. Through a controlled cold atom system, I aim to deepen our understanding of this peculiar mass component.

I am currently starting a new project on specific mathematical aspects of neural networks and LLMs, involving a deeper understanding of the cost function and the behavior under „bad influence“.

I have a review paper on particular features of gravitational radiation, one of which (displayed here) is the so-called Penrose Peeling.

My PhD thesis provides a thorough derivation of the so-called asymptotic spacetime formalism which I  currently apply to beyond GR theories.

Gravitational wave detectors might not only detect gravitational waves. In one of my papers, I explore the possibility of topological Dark Matter leaving traceable signals in detector data.

I am currently writing an article about how AI and neural networks differ from human and other species‘ brains. Check it out. Coming soon!

A large part of my past and active research is dedicated to understanding how certain signals will affect the LISA instrument.

My master’s thesis was dedicated to signatures and their detection of cosmic (super-)strings.

Two of my publications were dedicated to subtle corrections of gravitational waveforms by quantum effects.

To be continued ...

Build new connections.

Whether it is personal interest or professional business, for an intriguing discussion or constructive criticism, please feel free to contact me any time. I am always looking forward to meeting new people.
