Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences
University of Michigan - Ann Arbor
I am an Assistant Research Scientist in the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences at the University of Michigan. My research focuses on theoretical and computational plasma science, with emphasis on nonlinear plasma dynamics, plasma discharge and breakdown phenomena, multipactor physics, and secondary electron emission processes. I specialize in fluid and kinetic (Particle-in-Cell and Monte Carlo) simulation frameworks, complemented by scientific machine learning, to construct predictive models of nonlinear, threshold-driven plasma systems. My work bridges first-principles multiphysics modeling with scalable data-driven prediction to enhance reliability in accelerator, high-power microwave, and fusion-relevant plasma applications.
