My main interests are N-body simulations (using GIZMO), for studying the formation of MBHs via stellar collisions in dense Nuclear Stellar Clusters (NSCs), and the evolution of the first population of MBHs in order to extract characteristics like the merger rates, spin-flip behavior etc. I also work on mass determinations for massive black holes (MBHs) and generation of mass catalogs from extragalactic infrared (IR) observations.
