Super excited for this journey!!

Track the Twin has officially filled all its PhD positions! 🎓

Over the next few weeks, our doctoral researchers will introduce themselves and share what they’ll be working on. Stay tuned to meet the brilliant minds joining #TTT!

Life update!

I'm super excited to say that I'm starting my PhD in Physics @ FU Berlin! ✨

I will be an MSCA fellow with @trackthetwinqd.bsky.social and will be working on using ML to simulate force fields for Quantum Dots, with @cecclementi.bsky.social!

By simulating CO emission with more realistic physics, we find that turbulence measurements from CO lines are typically 10–15% too high, and in some cases up to 40% too high. We provide correction factors to make future measurements more accurate.

This study looks at how well we can measure turbulence in star-forming clouds using CO emission lines. Earlier methods assumed the gas was transparent, but in reality, opacity and radiative transfer affect the signal.

Turbulence from CO observations Turbulence influences the structure and dynamics of molecular clouds, and plays a key role in regulating star formation. We therefore need methods to accurately infer turbulence properties of molecula...

I'm pleased to announce that my second first-author paper has been accepted for publication in MNRAS. I thank the FRT Scholarship for allowing me to work at the Australian National University and Christoph Federrath for having faith in me to write this paper!

Excited to announce that I officially graduated from IISER Mohali with a Master's in Physics. This journey would not have been possible without the support of family and my amazing friends. I will forever miss the last 5 years.

Hey! I'm no longer just a high school grad!

Finally published!

Take a look to learn more about the prospects of forming close-in exoplanets in-situ by pebble accretion!

I am also very thankful to the DAAD-WISE fellowship, without which I would not have been able to go to Goettingen!

This work analyses the influence of some parameters on pebble accretion for planets within 1 au of their parent stars. I am incredibly grateful to #MNRAS for accepting my fee waiver and allowing this work to exist outside my VS code.

Can Close-In Exoplanets form by Pebble Accretion? Pebble accretion is the leading theory for the formation of exoplanets more massive than the Earth. Many parameters influence planet growth in the pebble accretion models. In this paper, we study the ...

Excited to announce that my first first-author paper, on pebble accretion, has finally been accepted by #MNRAS! Extremely grateful to @astrojoanna.bsky.social and @turbulenthuman.bsky.social for having helped and guided me on this work for the past 2 years!

Happy to have been interviewed by Nicola Nosengo for the MARVEL Inspire scholarship interviews! I was lucky to have been among the most inspiring women at
EPFL!

New here! Who should I be following? Looking for astronomers / professional astronomy groups, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds

My first act as a physics major was to pick a fight with the dirac delta function.
