Research interests

I am interested in a broad number of topics as a theoretical physicist, but as researcher I have been active in the context of the following fields:

• Cosmological structure formation by gravitational instability
• Colloids at fluid interfaces: effective interactions and structure formation
• Instabilities in granular media
