NASA Jack Eddy Fellow
Princeton University
Hi, there!
I am a NASA Jack Eddy Postdoc Fellow at Princeton University, Professor Hantao Ji's group, where I work on plasma physics experimentally and theoretically. I graduated from the Bellan Plasma Group at Caltech in June 2024. In recognition of my doctoral research, I was awarded the 2025 Laboratory Astrophysics Division Dissertation Prize by the American Astronomical Society.
I have a broad interest in plasma physics, including but not limited to fundamental plasma physics, solar physics, and plasma astrophysics. I enjoy solving problems using simple physics. I am also curious about research from different disciplines and am willing to learn new things and collaborate with people from different fields.
I have an intense curiosity about the world. I travel a lot and enjoy getting exposed to different cultures. Nature scenes attract me the most.
I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.
