Research Interests
Planet formation,
Star formation, and Exoplanets
I’m working on a theoretical study on the formation of planets, particularly gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn. I aim for fusion of planet formation theory and exoplanet observation. Constructing theoretical models, and predicting some observable properties, I want to constrain planet and stellar formation processes. I’m also interested in theoretical and observational works on exoplanet and protoplanetary disks themselves.
