Biography

Research at LISA ITN

Explore and develop new theoretical approaches to deal with relativistic open-shell atoms and ions; study and implementation of important quantum-electrodynamical contributions.

Impact of this research

Accurate prediction of the low-lying level structure of heavy and superheavy elements; theoretical treatment of atomic properties, such as isotope-shift parameters, hyperfine constants as well as a variety of excitation and decay properties of heavy, open-shell elements, such as actinium and polonium.
