From the master's degree in fundamental physics at the University of Paris 7, I prepared from the end of 1999 to the end of 2002 a doctorate in theoretical physics within the Department of Relativistic Astrophysics and Cosmology (DARC), then at the Universe & Theory Laboratory ( LUTH) at the Paris-Meudon Observatory.

After this thesis devoted to the physics of neutron stars, astrophysical objects with a mass similar to that of the Sun but compacted within a radius of a few kilometers, I did like the vast majority of young researchers and began to travel from country to countries (mainly Spain and Poland), awaiting a more stable position. Even if I have not yet obtained such a position, it has already given me the opportunity to begin collaborations with researchers of various scientific profiles and nationalities: astrophysicists, nuclear physicists, mathematicians, relativist physicists ...

From a professional point of view, this has implied that my current areas of research are quite varied (even if they may seem similar to those who do not know them closely enough). Thus, I am interested in the evolution of proto-neutron stars (dense and hot central residues of gravitational supernovae which give rise to neutron stars and black holes), to that of magnetized neutron stars (pulsars) or not , and possible mechanisms of gravitational radiation emission by relativistic astrophysical objects, such as neutron stars. All this involves as “main theoretical tools” nuclear physics at very high densities, general relativity, hydrodynamics and the numerical resolution of systems of partial differential equations. In each of these areas and "tools", many problems remain open, and one of the main hopes is therefore to use, thanks to the increasingly numerous and precise observations, these astrophysical objects as natural laboratories to deepen our understanding of fundamental physics.

From a personal point of view, the fact of having to go into exile for more or less long terms will have brought me something quite similar to what I consider to be an important professional enrichment. I would have had the pleasure of discovering people and ways of life sometimes quite different from what one can meet in France, and thus of learning to appreciate the best of each of them.
