INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION FOR SCIENCE EDUCATION IN UNDERPRIVILEGED AREAS: THE CASE STUDY OF THE ALL-GIRLS “SCHOOL OF ASTRONOMY AND PHYSICS BY MIRWAT” IN PAKISTAN AND VIRTUAL VISITS TO THE VIRGO INTERFEROMETER

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica Serie de Conferencias, 2022
As the world witnessed a swift change in every walk of life during the SARS-Cov2 pandemic, flexibility and adaption remained the key components for staying relevant in the field of science education. However, beyond the need for quick adaptation and acquisition of digital skills by both teachers and students, the digital transformation in education has

Beyond BPT: A New Multidimensional Diagnostic Diagram for Classifying Power Sources Tested Using the SAMI Galaxy Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Current methods of identifying the ionizing source of nebular emission in galaxies are well defined for the era of single-fiber spectroscopy, but still struggle to differentiate the complex and overlapping ionization sources in some galaxies.

The Far Side of the Galactic Bar/Bulge Revealed through Semi-regular Variables

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The Galactic bulge is critical to our understanding of the Milky Way. However, due to the lack of reliable stellar distances, the structure and kinematics of the bulge/bar beyond the Galactic center have remained largely unexplored.

Resolved Velocity Profiles of Galactic Winds at Cosmic Noon

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study the kinematics of the interstellar medium (ISM) viewed “down the barrel” in 20 gravitationally lensed galaxies during cosmic noon ( z = 1.5–3.5).
