Research Activities
Several space missions for moon, planets, comets are under development.
The optical instrument especially in UV range is useful for space plasma and atmospheric science.
I am trying to develop high sensitivity and high-resolution spectrometer within the limited mass and power budget for space use.
The scientific data analysis derived from those space missions are also my main activity.
The targets are Mercury, Earth, Jupiter, and so on.
