Research Interests
Dark Energy
Dark energy is a mysterious form of energy that constitutes about 68% of the universe. It is thought to be responsible for the accelerated expansion of the universe. Unlike dark matter, which exerts gravitational pull, dark energy has a repulsive effect, pushing galaxies apart at an increasing rate. I am interested in finding alternative theories to the \(\Lambda\)CDM Model that better explain current cosmological observations.
Modified Gravity
Modified gravity refers to a range of theories that extend or alter Einstein's General Relativity (GR) to address certain cosmological and astrophysical phenomena that GR struggles to explain, such as the accelerated expansion of the universe and the behavior of galaxies and galaxy clusters. I'm interested in testing these modified gravity models using cosmological data, such as weak lensing, CMB, and galaxy distributions.
The Large scale Structure of the Universe
The large-scale structure of the universe refers to the organization and distribution of matter on scales larger than individual galaxies. This structure is characterized by patterns such as galaxy clusters, superclusters, filaments, voids, and walls, which together form a vast cosmic web. I'm interested in extracting new information relevant to cosmological models through simulations and observations of the LSS.
Cosmological Simulations
Cosmological simulations are computational models that simulate the formation and evolution of structures in the universe, from galaxies to clusters, based on physical laws and cosmological parameters. These simulations help scientists study dark matter, dark energy, and cosmic evolution, providing insights into the large-scale structure and dynamics of the universe. I'm interested in creating universes using human-made machines(computers) and using them to do cosmology-related science.
AI for Astronomy
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing astronomy by enabling researchers to process and analyze vast amounts of data more efficiently and accurately. AI techniques, including machine learning (ML) and deep learning, are being applied to various astronomical problems, from data classification and anomaly detection to image processing and simulation. I'm interested in how to use such powerful tools to help us understand the Universe better.
Extra Dimensional Theories
Extra dimensional theories propose that in addition to the familiar three spatial dimensions and one time dimension, there exist additional spatial dimensions beyond those we can directly perceive. These theories have significant implications for fundamental physics, providing potential explanations for various phenomena that are not fully understood within the framework of standard three-dimensional physics. I'm interested in how to find evidence for the existence of these extra dimensional models through cosmological observations.
