Tianqi Cang Maps the Magnetic Weather Around Other Suns
An astronomer’s research homepage about stellar magnetic fields, stellar activity, and the environments of nearby exoplanets.
Field notes
The research is organized around three linked scales: magnetic topologies and starspots on stellar surfaces, magnetic energy in upper atmospheres, and the effects of flares and coherent radio bursts on exoplanet environments. The software section names TESSA, an interactive tool for configuring, running, and visualizing stellar magnetic-surface inversions, alongside LSDpy_UI and astroReport. Recent updates cite work involving three active M dwarfs and observations from FAST.
