Electromagnetic fireworks from erupting magnetars
Highly magnetized neutron stars are a source of extreme transients observed in different bands, like the fast radio burst (FRB) and associated hard X-ray burst from the Galactic magnetar SGR 1935+2154. The origin of such outbursts, hard X-rays on the one hand and millisecond duration FRBs on the other hand, is still unknown. We present a global model for various kinds of such magnetar outbursti...

Probing Parity with Galaxy Distributions and Beyond
Galaxies' four-point correlation functions provide insights into parity symmetry at cosmological scales. In this talk, I will present our data analysis on the BOSS galaxy sample with a focus on various observational effects. I will also discuss some future aspects of extending the analysis, including models and connection with other observables. In addition, I will also discuss an alternative i...

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...
