Dr in Astronomy & Astrophysics
Here are the science topics that I'm interested in and have been working on. Collaborations are very welcome. If you're student and interested in doing a summer project on one of this topics, please don't hesitate to contact me for more details.
​
​
Galactic archeology
​
Quantifying the roles played by radial migration and local star formation history in shaping the Milky Way leveraging precise stellar age and multi-element abundances of stars across the Galaxy.
​
Chemical evolution modelling in external galaxies, including abundances of individual stars in nearby satellites and integrated stellar population of distant galaxies.
​
Disk structure of the Milky Way
​
Mapping density distribution and structure of mono-abundance (-age) populations.
​
The size of the Milky Way.
Archeology of stellar substructures and overdensities in the Milky Way.
​
How special our Milky Way is?
​
Integrated stellar population properties, e.g., stellar age, metallicity, [alpha/Fe], and their spatial variation.
​
Stellar population properties of thick disk in the Milky Way and external galaxies.
​
Drawing an image of the Milky Way using data from large stellar surveys.
