Fast Radio Bursts as Cosmological Probes
I am interested in using fast radio bursts (FRBs) as cosmological probes to study the IGM and CGM. I have 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. More recently, I used the CAMELS project to study FRBs as probes of baryons in the CGM and demonstrated their potential to constrain models of baryonic feedback (read here). I am currrently working on investigating the potential use of FRBs to constrain baryonic effects on the matter power spectrum for applications to weak lensing and cosntraints of S8.
