Recent Highlights

My recent work develops and applies a gradient-flow strategy I originally proposed for computing moments of parton distribution functions from lattice QCD, opening a new route to hadron structure from first principles.

A New Gradient-Flow Method

I proposed a new strategy to compute PDF moments from lattice QCD using the gradient flow, with a simple renormalization pattern and controlled continuum and flow-time limits.

PRL & PRD Editors’ Suggestions

The first applications of this method appeared in Physical Review Letters and Physical Review D, with both papers selected as Editors’ Suggestions.

Press & Outreach

The results are being featured through institutional news and outreach at RWTH Aachen University and the Jülich Supercomputing Centre.

I am a theoretical physicist focused on understanding the strong interactions that bind protons and neutrons in atomic nuclei. My work involves exploring how these forces shape the building blocks of the universe and their impact on the symmetries that govern the fundamental forces of nature.
