Postdoctoral Researcher at DTU Energy
Oslo, Norway
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Haahr is a postdoctoral researcher and physicist-software hybrid with eight years of experience developing high-performance simulation codes for solar physics. He built GPU-accelerated components and is developing a Particle-in-Cell solver within the DISPATCH framework to model particle acceleration in solar flares, bridging computational physics and HPC. His background includes a master's in physics and a bachelor's in computer science, plus hands-on teaching of algorithms and language implementation at DIKU. Michael has practical experience optimizing MHD solvers on GPUs and plans to apply machine learning and big-data analysis to interpret simulation outputs. Based in Oslo, he moves fluidly between research, code optimization, and mentoring, bringing both domain depth and production-minded engineering. A less obvious strength is his track record of translating theoretical physics problems into performant, maintainable code for large-scale simulations.
