Bridging the gap between luminous red novae and common envelope evolution with radiation hydrodynamic models
Luminous red novae (LRNe) are relatively new transients that have the luminosity between classic novae and supernovae, initially classified as "gap transients". Even though many more "gap transients" have been observed by telescopes such as ZTF and Keck, their origin and physical processes remain mysterious. To initiate the study of the nature of LRNe, I built a 1D and 2D radiation hydrodynamic...

Studying Particle Transport in the Magnetic Turbulence with Pulsar Wind Nebulae/Pulsar Halos with Multiwavelength Observations
Pulsar wind nebulae and pulsar halos are extended sources of nonthermal radiation powered by pulsars. Morphologies of these sources reflect the spatial distribution of electrons/positrons therein, which is related to the particle transport mechanism and the turbulent nature of the background medium. Therefore, multiwavelength observations of pulsar wind nebula and pulsar halos provide a good op...

Cross-correlation between the Thermal Sunyaev–Zeldovich Effect and the Integrated Sachs–Wolfe Effect
Understanding the composition and distribution of baryonic matter in the Universe is a crucial step toward unraveling the mysteries of its formation and evolution. Early estimates and numerical simulations show that most baryons are “missing,” whereas the baryons that are already made into stars and galaxies constitute a small portion of the total baryon budget. Therefore accurate constraints...

On the Cosmic Baryon Cycle---Insights Learned from the Cosmic Ultraviolet Baryon Survey (CUBS)
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) contains the fuel for future star formation and the record of past feedback, making it uniquely sensitive to the physics of baryonic flows. Characterizing the tenuous multiphase CGM across cosmic time holds a key to unveiling the drivers of galaxy growth. The Cosmic Ultraviolet Baryon Survey (CUBS) is designed to map intergalactic and circumgalactic gas at interm...

Reconstruction of Cosmological Initial Density Field with Observations from the Epoch of Reionization
Initial density distribution provides a basis for understanding the complete evolution of cosmological density fluctuations. While reconstruction in our local Universe exploits the observations of galaxy surveys with large volumes, observations of high-redshift galaxies are performed with a small field of view and therefore can hardly be used for reconstruction. Here we propose to reconstruct t...
