Research summary
AI-generated

Maxim Lyutikov works in theoretical and computational astrophysics, focusing on extreme cosmic objects like pulsars, magnetars, black holes, and their surrounding plasmas (hot ionized gas). His research combines plasma physics theory with modeling of high-energy phenomena such as gamma-ray bursts, fast radio bursts, pulsar winds, and relativistic jets from compact objects.
