Description
As a beginning researcher I had the chance to benefit from Brandon's wise advice for my early work, from my 1977 thesis on cosmological singularities that he directed to his suggestion to numerically visualize black holes in 1978. Then we could fully collaborate from 1982 to 1986 in a series of pioneering papers on the modelisation of tidal disruption of stars by big black holes.
