Forskningsinteresser

Astronomer / astrophysics by education and training. Research in astrobiology, observational astronomy and astrophysics. German citizen, obtained bachelor and master degree from Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, Denmark. Awarded PhD degree from Queens University Belfast/Armagh Observatory, UK. Award of doctor habilitatus (dr. habil.) degree from Nicolaus Copernicus University, Torun, Poland. Internship at the German Aerospace Center in Berlin/Adlershof. Research interests cover topics in dynamical astronomy, celestial mechanics, planet dynamics and small-body solar system dynamics, dynamics of extrasolar planets, transiting extrasolar planets, photometry,  spectroscopy, spectral energy distribution modelling and modelling of eclipsing binaries, transiting planets as well as detecting and modelling of circumbinary extrasolar planets. Interest in astronomical instrumentation includes meteor detections in the UK, South Korea and Denmark.
