Current Research

I am working on high-pressure experiments and thermodynamic modeling to reveal the structures and compositions of the planetary cores. My research interests include 1) core formation in Earth and Mars, 2) sturcuture of the Earth's inner core, and 3) thermodynamic modeling of melting relations of iron-light-elements alloys.
