Research Field

  • Exoplanet, Planet formation, Exoplanetary atmosphere

Brief Introduction of Research

  • Thousands of exoplanets have already been discovered. None of them are, however, the same in properties as our Solar System. How diverse are planets and planetary systems in the Galaxy? Is our Earth an ordinary or very unique planet? Through theoretical modeling and observation, my research is aimed at deciphering the origin, structure, and diversity of planets and planetary systems.
