kaushikush/README.md

Hi there, I'm Kaushik! 👋

Postdoctoral Fellow at the Gravitational Wave group at NIKHEF, Amsterdam.

🔭 About My Research

I bridge theoretical physics and computational astrophysics to explore the universe through Gravitational Wave (GW) Astrophysics. My current work focuses on:

  • 🌀 Modeling compact binary coalescences using Post-Newtonian theory, Self-force and Numerical Relativity.
  • 🌌 Testing general relativity and performing parameter estimation of GWs.

🛠️ Tools & Tech Stack

Here is the toolkit I rely on for my daily research, data analysis, and scientific computing:

  • Languages & Core Ecosystem: Python, Mathematica (xAct, MathTensor), C, C++, html, CSS
  • GW Data Analysis: PyCBC, Bilby
  • Compute & OS: Linux, HTCondor, Slurm (for high-throughput cluster computing)
  • Scientific Writing: LaTeX

⚡ Beyond the Code

When my jobs are queued on clusters, you might find me exploring parts of Amsterdam, experimenting with mechanical keyboards, or reading the poetry of Jibanananda Das.
