Fast Radio Bursts as Cosmological Probes
I am interested in using fast radio bursts (FRBs) as cosmological probes to study the intergalactic medium (IGM) and the circumgalactic medium (CGM). Most recently, I showed that FRBs are a promising observable for quantifying the baryonic effects on the matter power spectrum, with applications to weak lensing and better constraints of S8 (read here). Previously, I showed with the CAMELS project that FRBs are promising probes of the baryons in CGM and demonstrated their potential to constrain subgrid models of baryonic feedback (read here). I have also used cosmological simulations to study the contribution of the IGM (read here) to FRB dispersion measure, as well as the correlation of dispersion measure with the Compton-y parameter.
