Abstract:
With some 8 faculty members and a couple dozens of postdocs and graduate students, NCU operates a suite of small telescopes at Lulin Observatory, the largest being a humble one meter to conduct niche projects, notably of cosmic variable phenomena. I will describe how we study from violent explosive events to solar-system bodies by joining high-profile international collaborations and at the same time also by our own leading efforts.
