I have been interested in science since I was a child, and have been especially keen on astrophysics, whose targets, though distant from us, may be understandable by making use of knowledge of mathematics and physics. The main topic of my research is transient phenomena in the universe, caused by what is left after massive stars died, such as supernovae, black holes, neutron stars, etc. These objects emit within a very short timescale not only electromagnetic waves over a wide range of wavelengths, but also cosmic-ray particles, neutrinos, and gravitational waves. So, in a sense, stars may behave more actively after their death! I would like to discuss theoretically what kinds of messengers transient phenomena would emit, and suggest future observational projects to test our hypothesis.
