Research Interest

My fundamental research interest lies in dynamics of giant planets in outer solar system. Among them Uranus and Neptune has been my latest research target. These so-called Ice Giants consist of a mixture of “icy” materials, namely, H2O, CH4 and NH3. In recent years, I have been focusing on clarification of high-pressure phase relations in the most abundant end component, H2O, based on a high-pressure experimental apparatus called diamond anvil cell.
