Yes, but it's less common. It usually implies a 'reaction' to a major event. For example, 'In the wake of the discovery, scientists celebrated' is fine, but it still feels very formal.

Only in very formal speeches or if someone is imitating a news reporter. In daily life, use 'بعد هيك' or 'بعدين'.

'بعد' is just 'after' (time). 'في أعقاب' is 'in the aftermath' (time + consequence + significance).
