Research summary

I am a professor at the Astronomy Department, Universidad de Chile, currently working on planet formation from an obsservational point of view. In general my areas of research involve the study of circumstellar and interstellar media through radio and IR/optical techniques. My previous areas of expertise include Photo Dissociation Regions and radio emission mechanisms, in particular on the physics of spinning dust. Here is an example in Ophiucus . Another field I have worked on is planetary nebulae, here is a result from 2006 .
