Overview

I am a condensed matter physicist working on topological electronic materials and magnetic materials. My speciality is measuring the excitation spectrum of materials using neutron spectroscopy to reveal magnonic and phononic features. I complement this with theoretical studies using ab initio molecular dynamics, DFT and model Hamiltonians.
