• The SALVATION Project

  SALVATION is aimed at multi-epoch spectroscopic monitoring of bright variable sources and spectroscopic follow up of transients in our neighboring Andromeda galaxy (M31) and other nearby galaxies. Our workhorse is the Lick Observatory's Shane 3-m telescope equipped with the Kast spectrograph. We currently harvest our targets from the public alerts of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) time-domain survey using the ANTARES event-broker.
  As part of the same project we also target some extragalactic transients (mainly supernovae) from the ANTARES output streams for early classification and notification to the community (e.g., via Astronomer’s Telegrams).

• Research Internship, University of California, Santa Cruz

  Analyzed spectral features of different stars and made a model to classify stars using TheCannon using stellar labels (physical parameters and chemical abundances) from the spectra obtained from Shane 3-m telescope.
