Dr. Hosseini is experienced in applied electromagnetics and plasma physics. He brings extensive expertise in radio frequency wave propagation in plasma environments, geospace remote sensing, and computational modeling of low frequency electromagnetic waves. He is passionate about using radio frequency signals for atmospheric lightning geolocation, space weather forecast, subterranean mapping, and earthquake prediction.

Hosseini's expertise includes automated extraction of signals from natural (atmospheric lightnings) and man-made (electric power transmission lines) sources and kinetic simulation of nonlinear wave particle interactions in the Earth's radiation belts. He has developed finite difference modeling of wave propagation in 1) magnetized plasma, 2) the Earth-ionosphere waveguide, and 3) nanoscale plasmonic structures. Additionally, he investigated low frequency wave generation via ionospheric heating and imaging of conductive objects inside enclosures (containers, tunnels, etc.).

While at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Dr. Hosseini gained expertise on science-dedicated radar networks and space missions within the Space Exploration Sector. He also briefly assisted with AC/DC module of low frequency electromagnetics team at COMSOL Multiphysics.
