I am a theoretical astrophysicist. My research has been focused on understanding the underlying physics of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) and long-period radio transients (LPRTs). My areas of expertise include plasma physics, special relativity, hydrodynamics, classical electrodynamics and radiation transfer.

My past worldline:

• 2021-now, PhD candidate in Astronomy (University of Nevada, Las Vegas)
• 2017-2021, Bachelor in Physics (Tianjin Normal University)

Research

More descriptions here. Things I am currently thinking about:

• What is the radiation mechanism of FRBs?
• What propagation effects shape the spectra and polarization of FRBs?
