  Sensitive observations have found enormous clouds of material beyond our Milky Way Galaxy. Some are as large is mini-galaxies with as much mass as 100 million Suns. Others are shreds that were ripped from nearby galaxies. Additional observations show that several nearby clouds are currently interacting with our own Galaxy. Some have reportedly shot through the Milky Way's disk while others are currently passing through the less dense outskirts of our Galaxy. My group has been computationally modeling these clouds, called high velocity clouds (HVCs), in order to determine how they affect our Galaxy and how our Galaxy affects them. In this presentation, I will show how HVCs behave on timescales of hundreds of millions of years, how they shed streamers of highly ionized gas that become incorporated into our Galaxy, and what happens when they collide with the dense gas in our Galaxy's disk.

  Polyampholyte are water-soluble polymers containing both cationic and anionic groups. They are ubiquitous in nature such as genetic material (DNA and RNA) and proteins and thus are of fundamental scientific interest and have a wide range of industrial applications. In this talk we present some of our recent work: 1) conformational behaviors of the polyampholytes coated onto the internal surface of a spherical cavity. 2) The valency of the counterion effects.

  The implementation of the nanochannel functionalities mainly depends on the physico-chemical properties of the surfaces, which have critical effects on the transport behavior of the confined fluid and the structure of the solvent in the interfacial region. A strategy to modify the surface properties is to graft polymers brushes onto the surfaces of the solid-state channels.We simulate electrokinetic transport dynamics in mixed polymer brush-grafted nanochannels, where two distinct species of polymers are alternately grafted on the inner surface of nano channels.

• Feeding and feedback in the multi-phase interstellar medium

  The interstellar medium is the intermediary between star formation, stellar feedback, and galaxy evolution. Our understanding of the ISM has evolved from a static three-phase model into one in which turbulence and magnetic fields regulate a much more complex, dynamic medium. I will present magnetohydrodynamic simulations of this turbulent, multi-phase ISM, demonstrating the dynamic nature of the interaction between the star-forming disk and the Galactic halo. I will also discuss the implications for infall of gas into the Galaxy which feeds future star formation.
