AboutAbout the lab
Exploring how galaxies formed, and dark matter.
The Chiba Lab studies how galaxies formed and how they have changed over time.
Its listed research interests are galaxy formation and evolution, galactic archaeology, dark matter in galaxies, and observational cosmology.
The lab's website also publishes articles, in Japanese, about research investigating the Milky Way and nearby galaxies.
Key terms
- Galactic archaeology
- A research field that traces back the past formation history of a galaxy from the properties and motions of the stars in it today.
- Dark matter
- Matter that emits no light and cannot be seen directly, but is thought to affect the motion of galaxies and other objects through its gravity.
- Observational cosmology
- A research field that investigates the formation and evolution of the universe as a whole using observational data from telescopes and other instruments.
