Assistant Professor Shirasaki, Yuji
Research Field
- High energy astrophysics, cosmic-ray physics, database astronomy
Brief Introduction of Research
- I am an observational astrophysicist. My current research interest is to understand the evolution of a supermassive black hole. My work uses a lot of data from major archives of the worlds, such as, Subaru, SDSS, UKIDSS, and so on. To utilize such big datasets, I am also interested in the development of a distributed computing system.
