Research group

Astroparticle Physics

In astroparticle physics we are interested in the constituents of the Universe, most notably the nature of dark matter. In our research we connect elementary particle physics, astronomy and astrophysics to explore the dark matter, both theoretically, but also phenomenologically together with experimental groups.

About me

I am a professor in theoretical physics and the Department of Physics. Research and teaching are both questions that engage me. I am deeply engaged in questions regarding teaching and learning and was 2016–2023 the chair of the undergraduate education committee at the Faculty of Science. Since 2024 I am the dean of the Mathematics and Physics section of the faculty.

I currently teach on a distance learning course in quantum mechanics that runs over the summer (FK5033).

My reserarch focus on astroparticle physics and theoretical physics. My main area of interest is the dark matter in the Universe.

I am also a part of the Oskar Klein Centre  for cosmoparticle physics.

I am co-author of several public computer codes:

  • DarkSUSY, a program to calculate properties and observables for dark matter models.
  • WimpSim, a program to simulate annihilation of dark matter particles in the Sun and the Earth and calcualte the resulting neutrino-fluxes including interactions and neutrino oscillations.
  • GAMBIT, a program to make global fits to available data, mostly for dark matter models.

Publications

My publications are most easily found on inspire or on arXiv.
