Research Group: Planetary Surface Environment and Small Bodies

Introduction: 

Our group is interested in planetary surface environment and solar/planetary system evolution.

Our team is conducting research in the following fields:

  • Dust of planetary and small bodies
  • Cosmic rays, solar wind and their interaction with planetary surface
  • Planetary subsurface structure
  • Water, volatiles, organics
  • Planetary nebula, early solar system
  • Observation and characterization of asteroids and comets
  • Thermal properties of the Moon, asteroids, comets
