Personal

I am a doctor of astrophysics and the Associate Professor at the Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences, you can find my Curriculum Vitae here. I am the initiator and current leader of the Cosmic-Ray Extremely Distributed Observatory (CREDO) Collaboration which aims at exploration of the as yet un-probed broadcasting channel of the Universe: the channel of extended particle cascades we name cosmic ray ensembles (CRE). CREDO will tell us whether we can receive a signal in this channel. Needless to say, receiving a signal in a completely new channel, might give us hints about the deepest mysteries of the Universe – the long awaited breakthrough in science. The data set we are attacking is impossibly huge, our expectations on the properties of the signal are highly uncertain, nevertheless we know how to start. We also know that we will need a lot of help from science enthusiasts, not only scientists – there is also a lot of room for public engagement in citizen science within CREDO. All hands on board for the ultimately exciting quest for unexpected physics!
