Oleg is a computational physicist with a background in numerical relativity and relativistic astrophysics, with a particular focus on physics of neutron stars and accretion disks around black holes. He also has experience in simulating nucleosynthesis of heavy elements by solving complex nuclear reaction networks. He is interested in the inner workings of gamma-ray bursts, specifically in modeling violent relativistic hydrodynamics of neutron star mergers and investigating a variety of potentially observable signals.
