Hi, welcome to my webpage!
Narsireddy Anugu currently works at the CHARA Array as the Optical Systems Scientist. Before that Anugu pursued two postdoc fellowships at the University of Arizona and the University Exeter/Michigan. Anugu earned his Ph.D. from University of Porto by involving in the successful development of VLTI/GRAVITY in 2017 working. GRAVITY has contributed several interesting science results including 2020 Nobel Prize Physics.

Selected breakthrough science results
First Successful Test of Einstein’s General Relativity Near Supermassive Black Hole (from GRAVITY observations). Press Release and A&A letter (led by GRAVITY collaboration). Super excited our work helped 2021 Nobel Prize Physics (Reinhard Genzel).
GW Ori: Misaligned and warped Protoplanetary Disk around a Triple-Star System (from MIRC-X). Press Release , CNN and Science Journal paper (led by S. Kraus).
GRAVITY observations show breaking spectrum of exoplanets using better filter of planet signal from host star using interferometry coherence. Press release and A&A letter (led by GRAVITY collaboration).
Our group solved the mystery of Betelgeuse unexpected dimming in 2019/2020. This ESO/L. Calçada artist’s animation shows how the dust obscuring the southern region of Betelgeuse at different observational epochs. This work published in Nature (led by M. Montargès).
