Yukun Huang 黄 宇坤
Welcome to my academic homepage. I am currently a Project Research Fellow at CfCA NAOJ, working with Prof. Eiichiro Kokubo. My research interests span a broad array of topics within dynamical astronomy. These include exploring the retrograde mean-motion resonances, delving into the mysteries of the Kuiper belt, and unraveling the complex processes involved in the formation and evolution of planetary systems.
I completed my PhD from UBC Dept. of Physics & Astronomy under the guidance of Prof. Brett Gladman in 2023. Prior to this, I achieved my Master’s degree in astrodynamics with distinction from Tsinghua University in 2019.
You can find me in other places like Google Scholar and ADS.
