The environment around neutron stars features high magnetization, strong gravity, and relativistic particles. With radio, X-ray, and gravitational wave observations, neutron stars are perfect laborato...
The discovery of gravitational waves from the coalescence of binary black holes in 2015 has marked the dawn of the gravitational wave (GW) astronomy/cosmology. Besides the gravitational wave bursts fr...
Precision radial velocity and photometric monitoring of a large number of stars may reveal hitherto overlooked populations of binary systems consisting of normal stars and unseen compact objects. I wi...
The overwhelmingly homochiral nature of life has left a puzzle as to whether mirror-image biology systems based on a chirally inverted version of molecular machinery could also exist. We initially dev...
As the outermost layer of the solar atmosphere, the corona plays a key role in shaping the plasma and magnetic field environment of the solar system. The quiescent corona has a temperature of about on...
