2021 MERAC Prize to Judit Szulágyi
The 2021 MERAC of the European Astronomical Society (EAS) for the Best Early Career Researcher in Theoretical Astrophysics (New Technologies) goes to Judit Szulágyi, Assistant Professor of Computational Astrophysics at the Institute for Particle Physics and Astrophysics (IPA) at ETH Zurich.
ppointed as Assistant Professor of Computational Astrophysics in the Institute for Particle Physics and Astrophysics (IPA) where she leads the Computational Astrophysics Group. Her research focuses on the formation and evolution of planetary systems and moons, mainly by developing and using computer simulations. Professor Szulágyi’s algorithms and models are particularly noted for taking full account of the propagation of radiation in these forming planetary systems, as well as demonstrating unprecedented spatial resolution in the computer simulations.
Judit Szulágyi was external page 30 Under 30 in Science” list in 2017.
MERAC Prizes
external page European Astronomical Society (EAS) for three categories: Theoretical Astrophysics, Observational Astrophysics, and New Technologies (Instrumental / Computational / Multi-Messenger). The prizes alternate by year for best early-?career researchers and for best doctoral thesis.
