Welcome to our webpage!

Created in December 2016, the "Lendület" Hot Universe Research Group at the Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE) of Budapest (Hungary) consists of six members (one permanent staff and five postdocs). Our research interests are mainly focused on high energy astrophysics, particularly on hot atmospheres pervading galaxy clusters, groups, and elliptical galaxies, supermassive black holes and their feedback, gamma-ray bursts, and instrumentation.


Our research group:

  • Norbert Werner (group leader)
  • Kiran Lakhchaura
  • François Mernier
  • Masanori Ohno
