Jianhao WU-Fundamental Physics by AI & Computation

I am a PhD student @UW-Madison Physics, under the supervision of Prof. Mariel Pettee, on AI Foundation model for fundamental physics lying on the intersection between Astrophysics and HEP.

I got my MPhil in Physics @CUHK in 2025, under the supervision of Prof. Tsang Keung Chan, fully funded by CUHK Research Postgraduate Studentship for this research-based master degree. I used cosmological simulation to study blue tilt early universe model’s implication on late universe cosmic structures(Phys. Rev. D 112 (2025) 023512 [arxiv:2412.16072]). Prior to that, I got a course-based MSc in Physics degree also @CUHK in 2023, with CUHK MSc in Physics Excellent Performance Award, which complemented my knowledge gaps as a non-physics student.

I got my Computer Science BEng degree @WHU in 2022, working with Prof. Guobin Mou to constrain the physical origin of North Polar Spur, a bright structure on radio band within Milky-Way (Astronomy & Astrophysics 676, L3 [arxiv:2212.04306]). With this paper I won the Best Presentation Award of the CosPA 2024 Symposium.
