      I’m not sure if you can really call this an experiment, but I’m building computer simulations of explosions on neutron stars. We hope that this will allow us to better understand our observations and tell us new things about neutron stars.

      Like Alice, not sure if it counts as an experiment, but I’m run programs that produce what the structure of galaxy clusters look like if we change the strength and nature of gravity 🙂
