Research interests
Nuclear structure, and in particular nuclear masses, are pivotal for understanding the origin of elements in the Universe. How and where were the elements heavier than iron made? We can more accurately answer this question by measuring nuclear properties employing the IGISOL facility at the University of Jyväskylä.
