Regis Cartier

I am a postdoctoral researcher working on time domain research and mainly focused on the study of Supernovae and their progenitors.

Current Position: Postdoctoral fellow

Projects:

Study observations of SNe to understand their explosion mechanism and their progenitors. I’m also interested in the use of SNe Ia as distance indicators and to determine the value of the Hubble constant.

Highlights:

A puzzle solved after two decades: SN 2002gh among the brightest of superluminous supernovae.
