The subject of scientific research focuses on issues related to high-energy physics, and in particular focuses on the theoretical analysis of selected processes occurring in high-energy hadron collisions. The main goal of the research is to connect the front of theoretical research with the latest experimental data on the LHC accelerator at CERN. |

The research is focused on the condensed matter physics, including semiconductors, layered crystals, and nitrides applied in the opto- and microelectronics of high frequencies, power, and temperatures. Studies include ab initio atomistic modeling of adsorption processes on surfaces, reconstruction processes, investigations on semiconductor heterostructures, and the growth of thin films. First-principles calculations on the diffusion of point defects at interfaces, band structures of the crystalline materials, and investigations on the role of symmetry and topology in the reflection of selected physical properties of crystals. |

My research is related to the thermodynamic evolution of comets. In particular, they focus on the emission of cometary matter, e.g. as a result of a cometary outburst. A secondary interest is the widely understood popularization of astronomy. |

The subject of research focuses on high-energy physics and particle physics. Scientific research includes calculations of total and differential cross sections. The cross section as a function of many variables (e.g. energy, transverse momentum, rapidity, azimuth angle) for the production of vector mesons in photon-proton, proton-proton, photon-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions. The calculation results are compared with experimental data from HERA, RHIC, Tevatron and LHC accelerators. |

The main topic of research is the transport properties of nanoscopic systems. Particular attention is paid to spin-dependent transport in a quantum dot system coupled with a metallic, ferromagnetic and superconducting electrodes. The transport properties of a quantum dot coupled with Majorana fermion are also considered. |

In my research work I deal with a one-dimensional model of Heisenberg magnets for finite chains with a 1/2 spin on each node. By using several alternative methods, such as solutions to Bethe equations or rigged string configurations, I determine eigenstates of the problem and investigate the coherent and divergent points of various approaches describing the system under study, mainly for chains composed of several nodes. The key aspect necessary to understand the problem of short chains is also the use of the extension of the field of rational numbers by primitive roots of the N-th degree of unity, which is related to the appropriate structure of the Galois group. This topic is a part of the current research related to nanoscopic physics and quantum informatics. |
