Interests
I work with computer simulations of planet formation. I am especially interested in the dynamics of dust grains and boulders in protoplanetary discs. This is relevant for the formation of kilometre-sized planetesimals, the first step on the way to real planets.
Projects
I am a co-developer of the Pencil Code, a sixth order finite difference magnetohydrodynamics code that is highly modular and versatile.
