معرفی
Victoria Grinberg (she/her) is a Researcher and Project Scientist at the European Space Agency (ESA), with a focus on space science and high-energy astrophysics. She serves as the Research Fellows Coordinator and co-organizes the X-Wind collaboration, which integrates X-ray astronomy with stellar wind theory. Grinberg's expertise spans spectral and timing analysis of X-ray binaries, accretion/ejection processes around black holes and neutron stars, and the study of clumpy winds from massive supergiant stars.
Her research combines multi-energy range observations and innovative methodologies to probe accretion geometry in extreme relativistic environments. She also bridges astronomy with climate science, assessing the carbon footprint of large astronomy meetings and advocating for sustainable practices in academia. Grinberg is actively involved in public outreach, delivering talks in English and German, contributing to educational initiatives like ARTÉ twitch streams, and creating scientific illustrations and academia-themed cartoons.
Victoria Grinberg's recent publications highlight her ongoing work in X-ray binaries, black hole and neutron star environments, and stellar wind dynamics. Her articles often integrate spectral-timing techniques, polarization studies, and multi-mission data from NICER, Chandra, and INTEGRAL. Key trends include the analysis of accretion disk geometry, wind density structures, and the impact of stellar wind variability on X-ray emission mechanisms.
