Research Interests:

Broadly speaking, my main interests are in theoretical astrophysics and cosmology. I have worked on large scale structure, the intergalactic medium, gravitational lensing, early universe physics, particle astrophysics and extra-solar planets. You can find my publications at the astro-ph, hep-ph and hep-th archives.

Math Education:

This is a Math afterschool program for Kindergarteners to Third Graders in Harlem - the Reading Team Math Program.

Code:

A code for computing velocity two-point correlations, and the associated magnitude covariance for standard candles (such as supernovae). The code also contains portions useful for computing power spectrum, growth factor and cosmic distances.

Presentations:

A series of 3 introductory lectures on cosmology aimed at undergraduates.
