Yusuke Fujimoto
Computational Astrophysicist
Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Aizu

I am a computational astrophysicist at Department of Computer Science and Engineering at University of Aizu in Japan. I am working on important issues related to various fields, such as astrophysics, galactic astronomy, and Earth and planetary science, through large-scale numerical simulations using high-performance supercomputers. Specifically, while focusing on galaxy simulations and its code development for calculating the hydrodynamics of interstellar medium and the N-body gravitational systems of stars, I also actively collaborate with research groups in various fields internationally, including astronomical multi-wavelength observations and material analysis in Earth and planetary science such as meteoritics and geology.
