David Vartanyan
I am a Hubble Einstein Fellow at Carnegie Observatories. I was previously a postdoc at Berkeley/LBL as a joint TAC and ECP fellow. I received my Ph.D from Princeton University, studying core-collapse supernovae theory through multi-dimensional simulations.
​
My research makes direct connections with observations from supernovae theory, made explicit in my most recent publication coupling the physics of core bounce with the observational signatures, including light curves and nuclear yields, at shock breakout and in supernovae remnants.
​
I am a PI on multiple HPCs and I am always eager to talk shop about high-performance computing.
Please see https://dvartany.github.io/data/ for information and README on the data, as well as the data itself, if the links here do not work.

I was previously part of the SciDac4 collaboration to utilize exascale computation with existing astrophysical codes.

My publications are available at the ADS Library.
