WELCOME !

ME ...

Dr. Keisuke Hosokawa is a scientist/space physicist investigating the environment of the planetary upper atmosphere (ionosphere and magnetosphere) by using experiments with ground-based radio and optical instruments, and space-based satellite. In particular, he is interested in the impact of the disturbances in the Earth's upper atmosphere on modern technologies such as space-based infrastructures. His research sometimes takes him to the high arctic region to setup his instruments for measurements.

He completed a doctorate in solar-terrestrial physics at Department of Geophysics, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University. He is now a professor in Department of Communication Engineering and Informatics, The University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo.
