O autorze

Kaloian Lozanov is a postdoctoral researcher and a member of the Physical Cosmology Group at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Garching. He completed his PhD in Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge working on reheating after inflation. His current research, as a theoretical cosmologist, focuses on the genesis of the universe during the hot big bang. As a part of his research, he develops analytical and numerical methods to improve our understanding of the evolution of non-equilibrium field theories in the context of early-universe cosmology.
