About

Ashkbiz Danehkar received his Ph.D. in Physics and Astronomy from Macquarie University, Australia, in 2014. He was a Postdoc Fellow at Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (2015-2018). He is a Research Fellow at the University of Michigan since 2019. His research interests include theoretical and observational astrophysics, including feedback from young massive stars, ultra-fast outflows in AGN, and outflows from AGB stars. He carried out kinematics and photo-ionization analysis of highly ionized outflows from AGN and planetary nebulae ejected by post-AGB stars.
