Dr. Alejandro Cruz Osorio Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.230 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798 47886 Email: osorio[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | My research interest includes accretion onto compact objects (vacuum black hole, hairy black hole or neutrons star), numerical evolution of magnetized torus and jet launching around a black hole, relativistic jets, black hole shadows and multi-wavelength emission by non-thermal particles. | |
Dr. Filippo Camilloni Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.228 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798-47848 Email: camilloni[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | I am a Postdoc researcher at the Goethe Universität in Frankfurt am main. My research interests include developing analytic approaches to black hole electrodynamics and jet launching, energy extraction mechanisms from black holes and theoretical aspects of dissipative relativistic hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics. | |
Dr. Claudio Meringolo Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.227 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798 47846 Email: meringolo[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | I am a Postdoc student at the Institute for Theoretical Physics, Goethe University of Frankfurt. My research interests include the numerical simulation of turbulent plasmas near compact objects through kinetic (Particle-In-Cell) and fluid (General Relativistic Magneto Hydro Dynamics) approaches. | |
Ms. Marie Cassing Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.227 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798 47846 Email: mcassing[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | I am interested in binary neutron star mergers with focus on radiation transport in the late post-merger phase, studying the effect of neutrinos on electromagnetic signals and gravitational wave emission. Previously I have also worked on differential rotation in hypermassive neutron stars and isolated neutron stars, equilibrium tori around black holes in different metric theories of gravity and stars composed of dark matter. | |
Mr. Yixuan Ma Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.145 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798 47873 Email: yma[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | I am a Ph.D. student at Institute for Theoretical Physics, Goethe University Frankfurt. My research interests focus on extreme processes occurring around compact objects such as black holes, including accretion, relativistic jets and binary mergers. With experience of semi-analytically studying the launching process of relativistic jets in strong gravitational fields in stationary spacetime, I am trying to extend the jet equations to more general and dynamic spacetime. | |
Mr. Carlo Musolino Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.231 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798 47887 Email: musolino[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | I am a Ph.D. student at Goethe Universität in Frankfurt. My research interests include the numerical simulation of isolated and binary neutron star systems, with a focus on radiation transport in binary neutron star mergers and on the effect of neutrinos in the gravitational wave and electromagnetic signals emitted by these events. | |
Mr. Harry Ho-yin NG Institute for Theoretical Physics Goethe University Frankfurt Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, Room 02.141 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Tel: +49-69-798 47848 Email: hng[at]itp.uni-frankfurt.de | I am a Ph.D. student at Goethe Universität in Frankfurt. I am interested in the numerical relativity simulations of compact objects: magnetized neutron star, binary neutron star system, core-collapse supernovae, and binary black hole and with a focus on the effects of neutrinos, EM fields, and QCD matter in the multi-messenger signals emitted by these high energy astrophysical phenomena. I am also a numerical simulation code developer to play a role in the implementation of dynamical spacetime, magneto-hydrodynamics as well as radiation hydrodynamics of neutrinos. |
