Research statement
My research revolves around open questions at the interface of particle physics and cosmology. I am particularly interested in dark matter – a yet unknown form of matter – as well as inflation – an early phase of exponential expansion in our Universe. For addressing these issues, I employ (primordial) black holes, sterile neutrinos, axions and inflationary scenarios driven by the Higgs fields. Close connections exist with various other topics, which range from classical and quantum aspects of gravity, scale symmetry as well as infrared physics to the mass scales of Nature, quantum information and analogue gravity.
