Xiang Fan

Ph.D. Student — University of California San Diego

Xiang Fan studied turbulence and flow morphologies of plasmas.

He has presented his research on turbulence theory at numerous scientific conferences: Festival de Théorie (France), International Sherwood Fusion Theory Conference, APS Division of Plasma Physics, and Advances in Geophysical and Astrophysical Turbulence (France). At the 2018 Sherwood Fusion Theory Conference, Mr. Fan won a Student Poster Award for his research on turbulence and transport in elastic media.

Mr. Fan earned a bachelor's degree at Peking University (Beijing, China).
