About me
|
Welcome to my web page!
I am an Associate Senior Lecturer (biträdande universitetslektor) at Lund Observatory at Lund University
in Sweden. Here I work on topics such as planet formation, accretion
discs, turbulence, and supercomputing.
I finished my PhD in 2007 at Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in
Heidelberg. After that I spent a bit more than two years as a postdoc
at Leiden Observatory.
News: 15 - 17 May 2013 we will host a workshop on "Ice and Planet Formation" at Lund Observatory.

Research profile
|
Research group
|
|
My research focuses on computer simulations of planet formation. I am
especially interested in the dynamics of dust particles in turbulent
protoplanetary discs. This is relevant for the formation of
planetesimals and protoplanets, the first steps on the way to real
planets.
You can read more about my research interests
here.
I am a co-developer of the Pencil Code,
a high order finite difference magnetohydrodynamics code that is
highly modular and versatile.

My research group currently hosts four PhD students and a postdoctoral
fellow. The group's activities are funded by Lund University, The
Swedish Research Council, The European Research Council, and the Royal
Physiographical Society of Lund.
We hold computing grants at the Alarik system at Lunarc in Lund and
through a European PRACE project.
You can read more about the group's activies here.

Today's quote
|
Lisa: *Now* can we do something Japanese?
Homer: Oh, I'm sick of doing Japanese stuff! In jail we had to be in this
dumb kabuki play about the 47 Ronin, and I wanted to be Oshi, but they
made me Ori!
Bart: Then we had to do two hours of origami, followed by flower arranging
and meditation!
Homer: [to Bart in Japanese, subtitled:] Should we tell them the secret of
inner peace?
Bart: [Japanese, subtitled:] No, they are foreign devils.
Marge: [to Lisa:] Honey, I know you want to see Japan, but we're down to our
last million yen. [takes a bill out of her hair]
Homer: [to Lisa:] Don't worry, ichiban, I'll show you something Japanese.
[takes the million yen note from Marge and folds it into a crane]
Lisa: Oh, it's beautiful, Dad!
Homer: It's a crane. The Japanese believe they bring good luck. [hands the
crane to Lisa]
Marge: Be careful. We need that money to get home.
[The wind carries the million-yen crane away]
No!
Homer: [Japanese, subtitled:] D'oh!
