About me
My English-speaking friends know me as Greg. I was born in Poland, but my college and graduate education was in the U.S., respectively at MIT and Harvard. After spending 14 years at NASA/Goddard, I arrived in Stanford in 2000. My research interests are mainly in extragalactic high-energy astrophysics. This includes studies of active galactic nuclei, and an associated formation and evolution of relativistic jets; and studies of clusters of galaxies, and in particular the processes responsible for the heating of the X-ray-emitting intracluster gas. In the recent past, I was involved in analyzing and interpreting observations performed with X-ray sensitive satellites such as NuSTAR. Recently I started to work in cosmology, with the goal to understand the process by which the structure of the Universe - such as galaxies and stars - formed during its history.
