I have been developing cryogenic high-resolution X-ray microcalorimeter spectrometers onboard X-ray astronomy satellite. It was achieved as the Resolve instrument onboard XRISM, which was launched in September, 2023. Now I am working for LiteBIRD, Lite spacecraft for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection.
Here are research themes I can provide. (1) Analyze high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy data obtained by XRISM satellite, and research motion of the hot gas in clusters of galaxies, in order to understand the formation of the large-scale structures of the Universe. (2) Conduct experimental studies, in anticipation of LiteBIRD mission, that aims for observing the polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation.
Message to students: Through the research, develop an understanding of specific natural phenomena, and also learn the process to reach fundamental physics laws that underlie the complex phenomena, together with experimental and/or analytical methods.
