原田ななせさん

  • 台湾中央研究院天文及天文物理研究所 プロジェクト研究員 (- 2020/6/30)
  • 国立天文台 助教 [公募情報] (2020/07/01-)

着任の挨拶:星間化学により近傍銀河の分子ガスの性質を調べるという比較的新しい分野の研究をしています。様々な分野に関わるので皆さんと議論できることを楽しみにしています。

Dr. Maria Dainotti

  • NAOJ Assistant Professor [info] (2021/01/01-)

I am Maria Dainotti. I study Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), the GRB-Supernovae Ib/c connection, the relation between GRB rate and star formation rate, and the application of GRBs correlations as model discriminators and as cosmological tools. I also work on machine learning to extract the redshift of GRBs and Active Galactic Nuclei.
I am thrilled and excited about joining NAOJ since the 1st of January 2021. Previously, I worked as a tenured Assistant Professor at Jagiellonian University. We have already made plans to collaborate with Takiwaki-san and Moriya-san on the GRB-SNe connection and on the ultra-long GRBs and I hope to work with Suzuki-san on the superluminous SNe and their connection with GRBs. I hope to collaborate with Tomisaka-sensei on the GRB rate versus the star formation rate for long and short GRBs. Regarding GRB cosmology, I hope to work with Sugiyama-san and Hamana-san to add GRB probes to BAO and the weak lensing to further constrain cosmological parameters. I hope to collaborate with Prof. Kajino on furthering our understanding of the dark energy models. I am enthusiastic about utilizing the Subaru Telescope and Alma facilities in collaboration with the Subaru (with Yoshida-sensei) and Alma teams (Iguchi-sensei) to further investigate the optical and radio afterglows of GRBs
