AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the origins of cosmic objects with X-rays.
The Matsushita Lab studies the formation history of celestial objects in the universe using the methods of X-ray astronomy.
According to the lab's introduction, most of the matter in the universe can be observed only with X-rays.
In the lab, students use knowledge of physics, statistics, and astronomy to learn and practice how to draw conclusions from data.
Key terms
- X-ray astronomy
- A field of astronomy that observes celestial objects in the universe using X-rays.
- Dark matter
- Matter whose distribution in galaxies and galaxy clusters is one of this lab's research themes.
ResearchResearch themes
The Matsushita Lab explores the formation history of celestial objects in the universe through X-ray observations. Its research themes include the distribution of dark matter in galaxies and galaxy clusters and the history of structure formation in the universe, the heavy-element abundance of galaxies and the history of star formation in the universe, and the mysteries of black hole binaries in nearby galaxies.
