Research Keywords
Current research theme
"Observation of Astrophysics and Extragal Galaxy"
Observational study of galaxies:
In particular, observational study of the structure and star formation activity of Magellan-type irregular galaxies and active galaxies. The observation wavelength range is mainly optical and near-infrared regions.
Design and development of 3D spectrographs:
Design and development of a spectroscope using microlens array multi-photomy spectroscopy.

Class seminar
My seminar
In my basic exercise, on the theme of environmental issues, learn how to search for materials using the library and the Internet, present what I have examined, and put it into a report. Presentations will be made on an individual or group basis.
