This one finally came out! Using the natural lens glass in the universe, we’ve revealed unexpected internal substructures and underlying gas dynamics in a distant, infant galaxy!. 最新の主著論文！視力が上がると見えてくる描像も画期的に変わってくるというお話.

This one is also finally out in Nature Astronomy! Yes, fun to see my contribution in Figure 3 ;) .

Here is an open access link: . and a research briefing - a short article highlighting the key findings: .

トロントで住む家が決まった〜！東京からコペンハーゲン、オースティン、トロントと数年ごとに大陸・国境超えての引越し、銀行・保険・個人番号・税金やら整えるの毎度心身けずられてたけど、今後はおさらば！体力あるうちに乗り切れて良かった。.

毎回、今回は無茶したもうやらんと思いながら1年後には結局過去一の量を自分で抱え込んでヒーヒー言いながらなんとか無理くりやり切って、の繰り返しでござる。やはり研究は力こそパワー。.

RT @NASAHubble: Congratulations to the 2025 class of the NASA Hubble Fellowship Program!. This program enables outstanding postdoctoral sci….

去年の春の時点で、積み上げていたreferee report対応待ち論文4つが晴れて全てpublished/in pressになりとても心晴れやか。ただ解析は終えているin prep.はまだまだある。終わらぬ輪廻。.

トロントに来ているのだけど、就労許可、社会保障番号、銀行口座開設などが秒で済んで、行政の安定感がもたらす快適さに心躍っている.

Visiting Toronto, setting up my social number and bank account, and diving into exciting science discussions soon to be unlocked by ~600 hours of JWST with another ambitious PI in Cycle4 — Go MINERVA & VENUS!! #JWST_Cycle4

Our years of effort have finally paid off!!🥹 We’re embarking on JWST’s first wide-field lensing cluster program, unlocking 60 precious lensing cluster survey fields for the community — Vast Exploration for Nascent, Unexplored Sources (VENUS)! @NASAWebb.

数年前SED fitを自分の手で初めてやるようになって、当時門外漢だったPopIIIモデルでも遊んでカラー図をプロポーザル用に作ってみたり、実データでトライ&エラーをしていたネタが、こうして今では論文になってJWSTのDDTの時間もいただけるようになり感無量。余白やserendipityを楽しむ研究の醍醐味.

And yes, we’ve even been awarded ~40 hours of JWST DDT follow-up time for this candidate, and @Rohan_Naidu and I have been seriously working for it with the awesome GLIMPSE team members! Exciting times ahead!!✨ @NASAWebb

Our recent Pop III paper got a major spotlight in a news article in Science! Appreciate the great highlights from @DanClery!.

じゅんさん！.

RT @Rohan_Naidu: Paper day! We report a compelling candidate for a Pop 3 galaxy! Pop 3 here refers to the very first generation of stars fo….

Check it out on arXiv today! Huge thanks to the amazing team effort of GLIMPSE that Rohan and I had so much fun leading together. This has been such a fulfilling project!.

The implications are huge - our candidate aligns well with PopIII galaxy evolution pathways on the Luminosity-Metallicity relation. We also provide the first observational constraints on PopIII UVLF and SFRD, which will serve as a beacon for theoritical studies!

Detecting the first stars (PopIII) is a long-held dream for astronomers. We developed a novel technique, applied it to JWST legacy data, and discovered a promising PopIII galaxy candidate at z=6.5 in GLIMPSE!

初めて腰痛を発症、ベッドから起きるのも靴下履くのすらままならん。これがぎっくり腰、、？騙し騙し空港まで来てこれから10時間フライト乗らなきゃなのだけど大丈夫なのか.

I remember being interviewed in the KITP workshop, but I didn’t realize the article was out until a colleague pointed it out😂 Excited to see the Cosmic Grapes featured alongside other iconic JWST discoveries!.
