signal processing signal optimization line profile analysis Be stars

Research Highlights



My primarly scientific expertise lies in observational and numerical analysis of
temporal activity in stellar atmospheres and signal processing of spectral data.
Here are some detailed highlights:

1) 1996: Found X-ray/UV/optical link of initial outburst event in a Be star.

2) 1996: Resolved radiative transfer problem concerning equal emissions of
singlet & triplet lines of HeI lines in Be star spectra.

3) 1993: Demonstration that magnetic flaring processes constitute the most
probable mechanism behind the outbursts of classical Be stars.

4) Late 1970's: Discovery of a new class of variables (nonradial pulsating B stars).

5) Mid 1970's: Application of Fourier techniques for optimized signal recovery
of spectral line profiles. See appendix on reviews.

I devote ~20 hrs/week to writing letters of recommendation for junior colleagues, correspondences, refereeing of papers for astronomical journals, telescope panels, and funding agencies, and astronomical research.
