I am an Assistant Professor at Center for Frontier Science, Chiba University.
My main research interests are in theoretical and observational astrophysics and cosmology.
Clustering of emission line galaxies with IllustrisTNG
We have produced mock catalogues of emission line galaxies (ELGs) with IllustrisTNG hydrodynamical simulations. In the first paper of the series, we have addressed the astrophysical properties and halo occupation distributions of simulated ELGs. The mock ELGs catalogues are shared upon request.
Accelerating perturbation theory with response function approach
The perturbation theory is a central method to accurately predict statistics of large-scale structures. We have developed a fast approach to speed up the calculation with response function expansion, and this method realises 50 times faster calculations than direct integration.
κTNG: Baryonic effects on WL statistics
Baryonic effect is the major systematic effect in weak lensing surveys. We have generated largest suite of mock weak lensing maps, which is composed of 10,000 realisations. The mock maps cover up to the source redshift 2.6. The sample data is available at Columbia Lensing.
HSC WL and Planck tSZ cross-correlation
The cross-correlation of weak lensing and the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect probes the large-scale structures and cluster astrophysics. We measured the cross-correlation with HSC and Planck data, and put constraints on cosmological parameters and mass bias parameter.
