Research summary

Soham Mandal's research focuses on understanding supernova remnants (the expanding debris left behind after a star explodes) through detailed 3D computer simulations and modeling. This work involves studying how these remnants change shape over time, what causes irregularities in their structure, and using observations of remnants like Tycho's supernova remnant and the Crab Nebula to figure out how the original stellar explosions happened. Earlier work also touched on radio galaxy surveys and energy systems modeling, though the recent focus is squarely on supernova remnant physics and numerical simulation methods.

Publication activity has been uneven but has increased notably in recent years, with a gap around 2017-2019 followed by clusters of output from 2020 onward and a large spike projected for 2026.
