Teaching experience
I've been involved in teaching courses and instructing seminars at the
University of Bonn since Summer Semester 2009.
-
Postgraduate Level
- Multiwavelength observations of galaxy clusters,
* Lecture on "X-ray, gravitational lensing, Sunyaev-Zel'dovich, and optical observations of galaxy clusters and their scaling relations"
This lecture is for students who are interested in understanding galaxy
clusters in terms of their self-similar behavior, mass estimates from
X-ray, gravitational lensing, and SZ observations, scaling relations
between different observables and their cosmological implications, and
how to constrain the astrophysics comparing observations to
simulations.
Topics of the lecture:
Galaxy clusters in X-ray, gravitational lensing, and SZ observations
Scaling relations: X-ray, gravitational lensing, and SZ background
Galaxy clusters in optical observations and their scaling relation background
Scaling relations: Cross calibration with multi-wavelength data

- Radio and X-ray observations of dark matter and dark energy
* Course on "X-ray XMM-Newton EPIC data reduction"
This course is for students who are interested in X-ray instruments and X-ray
observations for galaxy clusters, in particular, from the XMM-Newton
satellite. We address how to handel X-ray imaging spectroscopic
observations to extract scientifically useful information for further
investigations of galaxy clusters, including creating primary data cube,
light curve analysis, data cleaning, background subtraction, and spectral
analysis.
