Research highlights

Statistical properties of galaxies and AGNs

• The statistical nature of the brightest group galaxies [1]
• The size distribution of galaxies [2]
• The Tully-Fisher relation of Spiral galaxies

The third parameter, fundamental plane?[3]

Morphological dependence?[4]

• The inclination of spiral galaxies

inclination dependence luminosity function of spiral galaxies: implications on the dust attenuation of galaxies.[5]

inclination of the host spirals of type II AGNs: implications on the nuclear obscurer of the AGNs.[6]

dust in galaxies

• MW dust extinction and distribution [7][8]
• dust in merging galaxies [9]

X-ray Astronomy

• Soft X-ray properties of QSOs[10]
• X-ray properties of clusters of galaxies

X-ray luminosities of optically selected clusters of galaxies[11], and correlations with radio-loud AGN[12]
