Short presentation

My research concerns developing and implementing efficient numerical methods to study the dynamics of quantum mechanical systems, especially the effect of ultra fast laser pulses.

In my teaching I strive to use realistic models and open data to illustrate course concepts.

I am involved in matters related to Open science and Open research data as well as e-infrastructure services on the national and international level through the EOSC Association, the Guild and SND as well as within Uppsala Univ

Research

Current projects include the dynamics of molecular vibrations as well as of Heisenberg spin-chains, utilizing tools such as the DMRG and MCTDH methods.

A special interest is the use of heterogeneous supercomputers for solving quantum dynamical problems.
