Research

My research is centered around the astrophysics of dust. Cosmic dust particles play an important role for the thermal, dynamical and chemical conditions in many astrophysical environments, especially for the star and planet formation process and the late stages of stellar evolution. Dust particles determine the spectral appearance of proto-stars as well as of evolved stars with circumstellar envelopes, and they also dominate extinction curves of galaxies.


The books

I have written four astronomy books in danish: Skabt af Stjernestøv (from 2001 and which includes a teachers instruction and an interactive CD aimed at grade 9-10), Stjernestøv og Galakser - Himlen set fra Jorden (from 2006), Stjernestunder (from 2007) and Pigen der ville give sin mor en stjerne (a children's book for age 3-9 years from 2008). The childrens book is translated into Korean (2009) and is currently under translation into english.
I have participed in three interview books: Demens den anden frekvens by Asbjørn Nosh (2008), Dømt til at skabe by Bo Østlund (2009) and Lykkelig i nørdland by Dorte Toft (2009). And written chapters for the book Dansk astronomi i kikkerten by Lone Bruun and Kristian Pedersen (2010) and the catalog for the Meteoritic Exhibition at the Natural History Museum of Denmark.
