About

Hi! I'm Kartik Tiwari

I am writing my Masters thesis on computational cosmology (supported fully by Bonn-Cologne Graduate Scholarship) and working part-time as a research assistant in the Lichtenberg Group for History and Philosophy of Physics. During my Bachelors degree at Ashoka University, I completed an advanced physics major and a philosophy minor.

I enjoy visiting interesting geological formations, sites of archaeological relevance, testing the plasticity of my qualia and improvising music on classical guitars.

My Instagram stories contain some of my music and art. Twitter is for miscellaneous brain-dump. GitHub hosts my physics-adjacent coding projects.

Quickest way to reach me is through mail.

My Interests

Though I attempt to recklessly explore diverse discipines, my serious projects primarily fall within three domains.

PHYSICS

Interested in computational astrophysics (numerical relativity, magnetohydrodynamics, structure formation, etc.), mathematical General Relativity and Integrated Space Mission Design.

PHILOSOPHY

Interested in formal logic (paraconsistency, metalogic, etc.) and its inadequacies, philosophy of space-time, and frameworks for understanding consciousness.

ART

Interested in understanding and seeking beauty in all its forms and experiencing a wide spectrum of the human condition. I play indo-jazz guitar and dabble in visual and literary arts
