Shashank Shalgar

Shashank Shalgar is an Assistant Professor at the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, specializing in Theoretical High Energy, Astroparticle and Gravitational Physics. His research focuses on neutrino flavor evolution in extreme astrophysical environments and the early Universe.

Research Interests:

• Non-linear neutrino flavor dynamics in supernovae and neutron star mergers
• Quantum kinetics of neutrinos in dense media
• Lepton number conservation and symmetry breaking
• Mean-field approximation validation in collective oscillations

Publication Trends: Recent work emphasizes multi-dimensional neutrino quantum kinetics, flavor instabilities in supernovae, and matter-neutrino resonance effects in compact objects. Collaborations with Irene Tamborra and others dominate his output.
