Research Interests

I am a penultimate year MSci Physics with Theoretical Physics student at Imperial College London. My internship focuses on estimating cosmological parameters from Cosmic Microwave Background data.  I do this by using a new CMB map reconstructed using a recently introduced sparse component separation technique, coined Local Generalized Morphological Component Analysis (LGMCA). All predictions are then compared to previously published estimations. In my work, I use Monte Carlo simulations and cosmological Boltzmann codes.

My research interests cover Cosmology, the CMB, parameter estimation and the LCDM model.
