From
Jing Luan applies physics to explain observational puzzles adopting analytical methods. Her current research focuses on dynamics, including orbit dynamics, tidal interaction, stellar and planetary oscillations, and physical librations. These physical processes influence the evolution of orbits for planet-satellite and star-planet systems and help to constrain stellar and planetary interiors.
