Arshi Ali

Hi there! I am Arshi Ali, an avid enthusiast of astronomy and astrophysics. 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 and shape their host galaxies.

​​
At present, I am working on a research project as a lead investigator, under the supervision of Dr. Biny Sebastian. We are studying jet-mode feedback in a unique galaxy called NGC 5972, also known as a "Voorwerp" galaxy, analyzing data from VLT/MUSE, GMRT and EVLA. Additionally, I am actively working with Dr. Anupreeta More at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune, as an extension of my Masters thesis titled, "Probing Cosmology: Gravitational Lensing and Precision with GW+EM Lensed Signal."

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!
