Research field: fusion plasma physics. My research is focused on developing theoretical and numerical models to describe the dynamics of fast electrons (primarily runaway electrons) in plasmas. The main project is to derive a collision operator describing the interaction between fast electrons and partially ionized atoms, and study its effect on.

Göteborg, Sverige

Summer project in plasma physics, focused on investigating different models of collision operators in MATLAB and how these affected the electron distribution function as well as the conductivity of the plasma.

Waterloo, Ontario, Kanada

As a part of my master's degree, I spent one year taking courses in theoretical physics at Perimeter Institute as well as doing a research project on the Meissner effect in black hole spacetimes.'Awarded the Honourary PSI Scholarship

Washington D.C., USA

For a summer internship I worked with VLBI - Very Long Baseline Interferometry. I did two projects: the first was about analyzing and visualizing antenna networks, while for the second project I compared different models of tides.

Göteborg, Sverige

My main task was to lead mathematics exercises for first-year students, where I both presented solutions to problems and helped the students solving problems.

Västerås, Sverige

During a summer internship at ABB, Power Systems, FACTS, I worked with capacitor bank optimization. The aim of the task was to design a Matlab tool that finds the optimal configuration based on desired properties.

Västerås, Sverige

Summer internship. Analysing results from fuel inspections at a number of nuclear power plants in order to investigate how different designs affect the wear of nuclear fuel.

Västerås, Sverige

Three years of summer internship at ABB, Process Automation, Force Measurement. Lab testing of torque sensors as well as various office tasks.

Shimada, Japan

During an internship, I assisted during tests of automizers used for robitic car painting. I also and created a product information brochure.
