Biography

Eugene received his PhD in Astronomy and Astrophysics in 2004 from the University of Chicago. He was a postdoctoral researcher at Yale University (2004-2007) and Columbia University (2007-2010) whilst also being a Visiting Professor at the University of Fondwa in Haiti. In 2010 he became a lecturer in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge. In 2012 Eugene joined King’s College London as a lecturer in the Department of Physics. 

Research Interests

Broadly early universe cosmology. Current interests are :

1. Numerical Relativity in Cosmology (website : http://grchombo.github.io/)

2. High-gamma Collisions of Solitons and Defects. Effective theory of

Soliton Scattering

3. Testing strong gravity in cosmology and black hole physics

4. Modified Gravity

5. Applications of Quantum Information Theory in Cosmology

    Research

    Physics telescope
    Theoretical Particle Physics & Cosmology

    The research focus of the TPPC Group is on tests of new models of particle physics beyond the Standard Model, including supersymmetry, large extra dimensions and strings.
