I am a plasma physicist in the field of numerical simulations of intense laser interaction with matter. My research interests are ion acceleration and related high flux neutron beam generation, laser wakefield acceleration of electrons, secondary sources of radiation from terahertz scale to X-rays, inertial fusion, and also contemporary simulation tools employed at supercomputers. I conduct my research at Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics in Măgurele, Romania, currently the most powerful laser in the world. Also, I hold a small extern contract at the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, Czechia.
At this website, you can find information about my research, scientific outcomes and some materials (presentation, lab reports, codes) related to my former studies at the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering of the Czech Technical University.
