New windows in X-ray astronomy opened by eROSITA all-sky surveys
30 years after the ROSAT all-sky survey (1990), eROSITA performed X-ray all-sky surveys again in 2020-2022, in which 90% of the sky was observed in the X-ray band with high resolution for the first time. The eROSITA all-sky surveys (eRASSs) will detect millions of AGNs and tens of thousands of galaxy clusters and open a large space of discoveries. I will introduce eRASS and three research topic...

Precision studies of galaxy formation and cosmology
I will introduce some of our recent work focused on the measurement and modeling of galaxy distribution. We have developed a new method called PAC to make use of the complementary information from redshift and photometric galaxy surveys. With this method, we are able to significantly improve the measurements of some important observational quantities such as the galaxy stellar mass function and...

Observations and 3D MHD simulations of magnetic reconnection
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental physical process in various astrophysical, space, and laboratory environments. In solar physics, it is even believed to be a key mechanism to heat/accelerate plasmas and drive the eruption of large-scale magnetic field, giving rise to coronal mass ejections and flares, as well as solar energetic particles. High-cadence and high-resolution observations rece...

The sample and mass loss rate of red supergiants in M31 and M33
Red supergiants are important contributors to interstellar medium through massive wind. Due to serious interstellar extinction, the complete sample of RSGs is extremely difficult to obtain in our Galaxy. As two of the largest spiral galaxies in the Local Group, M31 and M33 can serve as a reference to analyze the global contribution of RSGs to the galactic medium. By using evident branching of...

Recent developments in the theory of planet migration
The migration of planets, through the exchange of angular momentum with the protoplanetary discs in which they form, is likely to be important during planet formation. Evidence for migration is provided by systems of multiple exoplanets in which the planets are in mean motion resonances, and by the orbital configurations of circumbinary planets. However, attempts to reproduce the known populati...
