My name is Jialai Wang (王佳来, pronounced as Wáng Jiā Lái), and I am currently a visiting researcher at Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU), The University of Tokyo, while pursuing my graduate studies at Department of Astronomy, University of Science and Technology of China.
Bridging the early universe with our local expanse, I seek to unravel the intricate tapestry of galaxy formation and evolution, gazing through the lens of massive black holes and their host dwarf galaxies. I am excited about contributing to significant scientific collaborations. At present, I am a member of the Subaru Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) Collaboration. I am also actively involved in the Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) which is often referred to as the "mini-LSST" in the Northern Hemisphere.
Currently, I am buliding a comprehensive catalog of AGN-host dwarf galaxies using multi-wavelength data, with a special emphasis on utilizing H I data from the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) and the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) Survey to statistically analyse the effects of AGN feedback on the gas environment in dwarf galaxies. Additionally, I am working with the XMM-Spitzer Extragalactic Representative Volume Survey (XMM-SERVS) data to study AGN and their host galaxies. Looking ahead, I am eagerly anticipating the opportunity to expand my expertise in the areas of statistical methods and machine learning.
Furthermore, I am actively engaged in the promotion of astronomy among the wider public. I have dedicated effort to organizing various activities on and off the campus, such as seminars, lectures, and public observations. Astrophotography is also a personal passion of mine. The captured stunning images not only fuel my own curiosity but also serve as effective tools for sharing the beauty of universe with the public.
I am always happy to discuss science and collaborate with people. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in my research or have any questions.
