Astronomy and astrophysics

Astrophysics is the application of physics to uncover and understand phenomena in the universe. We carry out research in the following areas:

• clusters of galaxies and large scale structure
• the star-forming reservoir in the early Universe
• the interplay between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies
• machine learning and data-mining in preparation of the next generation of large radio telescopes
