I am currently interested in models for heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies as means to study the equation of study of nuclear matter at supra-saturation densities, both its isospin symmetric and asymmetric components. Among the observables of interest are: nucleon flows (v1, v2 and v3) and particle production close to threshold (pions and kaons). I am also interested in developing transport models that allow precise implementation of fundamental symmetries (relativistic covariance) and conservation laws (angular momentum and energy)
