Biography

My research involves accreting compact objects and their energetic output in the form of radiation and jets, leading to a deeper understanding of the accretion process in the gravitational fields near compact objects. My group at New York University Abu Dhabi is finding clues about how the brightest X-ray objects produce the fastest flows of matter in the galaxy, relativistic jets.
