| Biography | Physics Research Excellence Framework Lead/ Athena Swan Departmental Champion Kevin is an experienced British-Australian observational astronomer, having worked in multiple research intensive institutions across two continents. He read his PhD at the University of Durham (Collingwood College) and, following more than a decade in Australia, returned to the UK in 2014. His core research interests cover a number of modern astrophysical topics and issues in the umbrella areas of extra-galactic astronomy and astrophysics, large-scale structure of the Universe and cosmology. |
| Research Interests | Primary areas - Galaxy evolution, formation, and environment over cosmologically significant timescales - Stellar populations inside galaxies and their response to their physical environment - Clusters and superclusters of galaxies, their kinematics, constituents, and growth - Star formation in galaxies, and active galactic nuclei - Brightest cluster galaxies (cD galaxies), and dwarf galaxies - Filaments of galaxies that stretch between galaxy clusters, voids, large-scale structure, and topology - Large, wide-field, and deep redshift surveys of the sky Other areas - Astronomical image processing, automated classification, machine learning - Virtual observatory, and catalogue matching and handling - Astrophysics and physics education - Dark energy, and the standard model of cosmology - Random number generation, statistics, statistical methods, game theory |
