Research interests

Current research interests include high-resolution spectroscopy of OB-stars as a complement to asteroseismic analysis of stellar pulsations with the use of space-based photometry.
Previous studies

Previous studies were focused on the development of pipelines for modelling various astrophysical phenomena: (i) cyclotron emission in spectra and lightcurves / polarization curves of strongly magnetized accreting WD; (ii) effects of rapid rotation on stellar spectra; (iii) effects of surface chemical spots on line profiles; (iv) embedding appropriate synthetic intrinsic lines profiles in widely-known Least-Squares Deconvolution technique.
After working hours

If not working, you probably find me mountaineering somewhere in a dark-sky region with my photo camera or, more likely, drinking wine somewhere in a dark corner of my apartment.
After decent amounts of wine, you can probably even hear me playing piano or ask me to draw someone’s portrait.
