And the beautiful globular cluster 🐾

My favorite dog in NTHU campus 🐶 #Chiao at #NTHU

You can find little cute things every where in Taiwan 🇹🇼 🥰

In case 😬

Thank everyone for being parts of my journey to this master’s defense today! Especially my supervisor Dr. Andrew Cooper and two examiners: Dr. Lan Ting-Wen and Dr. Daniel Harsono. And a special thank to Thong Nguyen 🐶🐾📚🎓

Our school dogs are still in holiday mood 💤💤🐶🐶🐶🐶

It is an unforgettable summer in 2023 to me: working with wonderful supervisors, meeting new people, visiting ASTRON, ESA Nederland, a boat trip on the canals and enjoying Friday borrels + BBQ at Leiden Observatory Apply to have a wonderful summer internship there Leiden Observatory and ESA Nederland

Happy White Day! 🤍 'Steak' the campus dog reminds you to give back some gifts. 🌹

arXiv -> alphaXiv Students at Stanford have built alphaXiv, an open discussion forum for arXiv papers. alphaXiv You can post questions and comments directly on top of any arXiv paper by changing arXiv to alphaXiv in any URL!

My first first-author paper is on ArXiv now! With Dr. Andrew Cooper, we used the DESI Legacy Survey to study the projected density profiles and number counts of globular clusters around 707 nearby galaxies. Check out the results at arxiv.org/abs/2408.07124

Congrats to my best friend Thong Nguyen for the main figure of his latest paper is selected as the September Picture of the Month by ISOC and ESAC!

🐶International Dog Day! Happy day to all those loyal companions and especially to our beloved Astro Dog, guardian of the stars, "Almito".

It’s paper day! arxiv.org/abs/2408.13763 We characterise the local halo substructures (Thamnos and Sequoia) as part of the ChronoGal project by fitting their absolute colour-magnitude diagrams using CMDft.Gaia, obtaining age and metallicity distributions! 🌟

Paper summary!!! On Monday, Amanda Byström and I put out this cool work: arxiv.org/abs/2408.17250 selecting red giants stars out to 100 kpc using the Pristine survey's data release 1 and Gaia XP catalogues. Here is a short summary of this long (sorry!) paper 🥳

My first day of winter school was so great! I enjoyed today's lecture by Behroozi and met new friends (some of them said they had been to/planned to go to Vietnam)!

I learned (and unlearned) a lot about scientific writing, thanks to Prof. Henri Boffin's lecture today! This is one of the lectures in the "Writing and Communicating your Science" - an IAA-CSIC Severo Ochoa Workshop indico.iaa.csic.es/event/16/ at IAA-CSIC this week.
