Tülün Ergin, PhD

I have been involved in the analysis of the Fermi-LAT data associated with supernova remnants (SNRs) and molecular clouds (MCs). Recently, I became a member of ATHENA and SWGO collaborations, where I am planning be more active. I have also been teaching at Middle East Technical University since 2018.

From 2012 to 2021, I worked as a chief researcher at TUBITAK Space Technologies Research Institute, Ankara/Turkey, where I worked as a member of the Reliability, Safety and Radiation group. Between 2010 and 2012, I worked at Bogazici University Physics Department, where my research focused on SNRs interacting with MCs using Fermi-LAT data and archival data of various X-ray satellites (e.g. Chandra). From 2008 to 2010, I was as a research associate at Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, where I worked on mapping all of the molecular clouds at high latitudes using the 1.2 meter millimeter-wave telescope (called 'Mini'). I have been an associate member of the VERITAS (Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System) collaboration since the end of my postdoc period (2005-2008) at VERITAS. I also worked in another imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope (IACT) experiment located in the Southern Hemisphere, H.E.S.S. (High Energy Stereoscopic System), as a Ph.D. (completed in 2005 at Humboldt University of Berlin in Germany).
