Research:
My research is focused on the physics behind core-collapse supernovae,
the effect these explosions have on their environments, and the compact
objects they leave behind. The main goal of my research is to use
observations of the supernova remnants, neutron stars, and pulsar wind
nebulae created in these explosions to determine how massive stars explode
and the properties of the neutron stars left behind.
