Arshi Ali

Hi there! I am Arshi, an avid enthusiast of Astronomy and Astrophysics. I am a PhD student at the Institute of Astrophysics, Universidad Andrés Bello (UNAB), Chile. I hold a Master’s degree in Physics from Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) and a Bachelor’s in Physics from Fergusson College (FC), Pune.

​

Currently, I am in my "exploration era", trying to understand the various aspects of extragalactic phenomena. But I am especially fascinated by Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), their intricate dynamics, and the ways these cosmic powerhouses influence their host galaxies.

​

​​I led a research project with Dr. Biny Sebastian on jet-mode AGN feedback in the "Voorwerp galaxy" NGC 5972, using multi-wavelength data from VLT/MUSE, GMRT, and VLA to study radio jet interactions with ionized gas. Previously, I completed my Master’s thesis on gravitational lensing under Dr. Anupreeta More at IUCAA, focusing on Fermat potential uncertainties. I also undertook a mini-project at Naxxtra Science on studying indirect Dark Matter detection techniques.


Beyond academia, I enjoy sketching, playing the keyboard, baking, and playing badminton. Feel free to explore my work, ask any questions, or get in touch if you’d like to collaborate!
