Hugo Bencomo

Aspiring Physics Researcher

I am a final-year physics student working on spin probability currents and their physical relevance in Hall systems and interacting Bose-Einstein condensates. My current orientation is quantum theory, while I continue to explore condensed matter, gravitation and cosmology, and high-energy physics. This site collects my CV, research reports, notes, and computational projects.

Academic Profile

About Me

I am a theoretical physics student focused on mathematically grounded models of nature, with a strong interest in quantum systems, field methods, and numerical analysis. I am currently studying at Universidad de La Laguna (Tenerife, Canary Islands).

My work combines formal theory and scientific computing. During my external internship at the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias (IAC), I studied the Final Parsec Problem and the role of self-interacting dark matter in supermassive black-hole binary mergers.

Current Focus

What I am working on

Bachelor's thesis · 2026

Spin Probability Currents

Physical relevance of spin currents in Hall systems and interacting condensates, including the cancellation with orbital currents and possible measurement of the total current.

IAC internship · 2026

Final Parsec Problem

SIDM, dynamical friction, dark-matter spike depletion, and the microscopic slingshot picture behind binary hardening.

Graduate direction

Quantum Theory First

Current preference for quantum theory, with an open track across high-energy physics, condensed matter, and gravitation/cosmology.
