PHYSICS


Currently I am working with Prof. Stachel on some foundational aspects of general relativity. More precisely, I am studying conformal and projective structures defined on manifolds used to model space-time, and their roles in general theory of relativity. More coming soon... Previously, I worked on few little experimental and theoretical projects in medical physics, acoustics and bio-physics. Some of those resulted in papers:

-Effects of age on muscle as measured by electrical impedance myography,R. Aaron, G. J. Esper, C. A. Shiffman, K. Bradonjic, K. S. Lee and S. B. Rutkove 2006 Physiol. Meas. 27 953-959 -The Role of Molecular Quantum Electrodynamics in Linear Aggregations of Red Blood Cells, K. Bradonjic, J. D. Swain, A. Widom, A., Y.N. Srivastava (2004-12-28), arXiv.org:cond-mat/0412725
