Hi there! I am a third year Ph.D student at Peking University under the supervision of Prof. Daniel Koll. I was an undergraduate student of physics and astronomy at Wuhan University before I came to PKU (BSc 2022).
I am interested in the atmospheres on exoplanets, the worlds beyond the Solar System. As of May 2025, there were more than 5,900 confirmed exoplanets but characterizing their atmospheres remains a challenge for astrophysicists. Atmospheres make these exoplanets colorful and diverse, and potentially habitable for life.
My Ph.D project focuses on hot rocky exoplanets with ultra-short periods, as delineated in the red-boxed region of the figure below. Such planets are ideal targets for observations and provide critical benchmarks for the evolution of the planet systems.
Now I am working on modeling the atmospheres on rocky exoplanets, utilizing 3D GCMs (Global Climate Model / General Circulation Model). Read more on my researches.
You can find my CV here.
