Revealing High-z Fermi-LAT BL Lacs Using Swift and SARA Data with Photometric Analysis by Yong Sheng

Yong is a 5th-year graduate student working with his advisor, Dr. Marco Ajello, in Astrophysics. Check out his paper here.

“ Find rare blazars with high redshift (>=1.3), helping to understand and improve the unified model of blazars. Estimate the gamma-ray burst (GRB) localization capabilities of AMEGO-X and COSI, two proposed telescopes to NASA. Developing some Python modules for the COSI data analysis software.Here is a plot of my data pipeline to derive the redshifts of blazars.”
