README.md

Hi there 👋

I'm a PhD candidate in astrophysics at the University of Chicago. My research works toward understanding how galaxies form and evolve with a specific focus on the chemical and physical mechanisms that regulate star formation in the smallest galaxies.

See below for some selected GitHub repos which I own/maintain or to which I have contributed.

🔭 I am invested in open science, so I try to make my code/data/models public: - avapolzin/CHIMExIllustrisTNG - Analysis code and TNG300 cluster catalogs from Polzin et al. (2024b) - avapolzin/hydrogen_models - HI-H2 models from Polzin et al. (2024a) and the larger literature - avapolzin/X-rayLCs - Code and X-ray transient data from Polzin et al. (2023a) + light curve classifier

🔭 I also work on scientific software projects that I hope will be useful to the community: - fforster/DELIGHT - Host galaxy identification for transient sources (Förster et al. 2022) - tbmiller-astro/silkscreen - Galaxy distances inferred from survey imaging (Miller et al. 2025) - avapolzin/spike - All-in-one tool to generate and drizzle space-based PSFs (Polzin 2025)

✨ and sometimes I publish smaller packages for fun (or as relatively simple utilities): - avapolzin/albumpl - Matplotlib palettes/colormaps based on album covers - avapolzin/cutout - Cutouts from astronomical survey imaging with minimal user inputs - avapolzin/rahrah - University-inspired Matplotlib palettes/colormaps

📚 Additionally, I'm very active in instruction and pedagogy, and share some materials on GitHub: - astroteaching/astroteaching.github.io - Compiled astrophysics teaching resources - avapolzin/ASTR255_Fall2021 - Beginning coding tutorials for Yale astrophysics majors - avapolzin/goodenoughgaiacmds - Simplified member selection and isochrone plotting for Gaia CMDs
