Résumé
My research is focused on computational astrophysics and its application to cosmology, galaxy formation and star formation. I am running large simulations featuring gravity, fluid dynamics, MHD and radiative transfer, taking advantage of High Performance Computing facilities around the world. I am the main author of RAMSES code, a massively parallel Adaptive Mesh Refinement code. Fields of expertise: 1- Adaptive Mesh Refinement for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws 2- Implicit solvers and radiation hydrodynamics 3- Self-gravitating magnetized flows in astrophysics 4- High Performance Computing (MPI, OpenMP, GPGPU)
