In the beginning of 2019 he started working as a Research Assistant in the Earth, Ocean, and Space (EOS) institute at UNH. He is currently studying the dynamics of the boundary of the Heliosphere by observing Interstellar Neutral Particles like hydrogen, helium and oxygen detected by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX). The heliosphere is a huge cavity around the solar system in the Local Interstellar Medium caused by the interaction of the solar wind to the Local Interstellar Cloud (LIC). IBEX is a small NASA explorer mission launched in 2008 and is still active. He is also involved in the Interstellar Mapping Acceleration Probe (IMAP) which will be launched in 2025 by NASA, a successor of IBEX.
