Biographic notes Current research interests focus on the effects of turbulence and
time-dependent convection on the structure of the outer layers of
sun-like stars. The non-local and non-coherent nature of turbulence
is studied with 3-dimensional, fully-compressible Large Eddy Simulations.
In particular, these simulations are used to quantify and predict
observable deviations from the asymptotic theory of seismic frequencies.
His research is dedicated to interpreting seismic properties of solar-type
stars and thrives to improve the physical ingredients of stellar evolution
theory.
