Research:
  • Isolated magnetic white dwarfs.
  • Fluid mechanical problems related to accretion in binary stars and radiation transfer effects.
  • Radiation processes and transfer mechanisms in accretion flows on to highly magnetic compact stars, such as the magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (mCVs, see figure below).
  • Modelling of cyclotron radiation from the accretion columns of mCVs.
