The laboratory "Data Analysis in Astrophysics" operates within the Department of Solid State Physics and Nonlinear Physics, Physics and Technology Faculty, Al-Farabi Kazakh National University. Established in 2020, the laboratory serves as an educational and scientific unit engaged in fundamental research in the field of astronomy and astrophysics in Kazakhstan.

The collective expertise of the laboratory, confirmed by publications in high-impact astrophysics journals, complements its scientific and technical qualifications. The "Data Analysis in Astrophysics" laboratory conducts research activities through grant funding for scientific and/or scientific-technical projects from the Committee of Science of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The scientific activities of the "Data Analysis in Astrophysics" laboratory include studies in the physics of close binary systems (cataclysmic variables with various accretion rates, stars with Be and Be[e] phenomena). Research tasks and problems are addressed through observational, theoretical, and computer modeling methods. The laboratory is equipped with the necessary tools for investigating close binary systems, such as access to observational material (photometric and spectral observations) on telescopes at observatories in Kazakhstan and other countries (Mexico, Czech Republic, USA), as part of the established international collaboration. Additionally, the laboratory has computer resources for processing, analyzing observational data, and conducting modeling.
