Greetings! I’m Keheng Zhu, a PhD student in Climate & Space Sciences and Engineering at the University of Michigan, where my research focuses on space physics. I earned my B.S. in Applied Physics from the University of Science and Technology of China. My academic journey revolves around numerical simulations, spanning first-principles simulations of collisions in fully ionized plasmas and integrating chromosphere–corona coupling into the Space Weather Modeling Framework.

When I’m not diving into the complexities of computational physics, you’ll find me on the handball court, reveling in the fast-paced energy of the game.

This blog is my virtual canvas where I share my ideas, inspirations, and the experiences I gather along my path to becoming a proficient researcher. Whether it’s unraveling the intricacies of plasma physics or reflecting on the challenges and triumphs of academia, I aim to provide a glimpse into my world.

Join me as I navigate the thrilling realms of scientific exploration and share the lessons learned along the way. Your insights and thoughts are always welcome—let’s build a community passionate about the wonders of research and discovery.

You can find my code and projects on GitHub: github.com/KehengZhu.

Warm regards,

Keheng Zhu
