Anton Vasyunin

Anton Vasyunin is a Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) in Heidelberg, Germany, where he leads the Planet and Star Formation research group. His work focuses on the physical and chemical processes governing stellar and planetary system evolution.

Research interests include:

• Thermochemical modeling of protoplanetary disks
• Non-LTE radiative transfer in star-forming regions
• Chemical evolution during planet formation
• Interstellar ice chemistry
• Dust grain growth mechanisms

Dr. Vasyunin employs advanced computational methods to simulate molecular cloud collapse and disk chemistry, contributing to observational interpretation from facilities like ALMA. His research bridges theoretical astrophysics with observational constraints to unravel planetary system origins.
