EMO-GP: Emission Mechanisms of Giant Pulses Apr 1, 2024 - Mar 31, 2027
The goal of this project is to understand the emission mechanism of ‘giant pulses’ (GPs) from radio pulsars and its connection to the origins of fast radio bursts (FRBs) and radio magnetar outbursts; phenomena for which recent evidence hints at an un...

Diffuse H-Alpha Emission in Galaxy Simulations Jul 1, 2024 - Aug 23, 2024
H-alpha is an emission line that is produced by ionised hydrogen in the interstellar medium. In galaxies, it mostly comes from hot, ionised bubbles around young, massive stars, and as such it is often used to measure how quickly a galaxy is convertin...

Binding energy of biomolecules on ice-covered grains in the interstellar medium Jul 1, 2018 - Aug 31, 2018
The discovery of glycine, one of the most basic amino acid, on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko by Rosetta ESA mission has sparked interest in studying the adsorption of molecules of biological interest on interstellar ices. Unfortunately, there is cu... Read More about Binding energy of biomolecules on ice-covered grains in the interstellar medium.

Undergraduate Bursary: Star Formation Quenching Efficiency in Filaments of Galaxies Jul 1, 2018 - Sep 30, 2018
Galaxy evolution is typically studied in discrete environments – usually within galaxy clusters or groups where the galaxy-galaxy interaction rate is high, in voids where the galaxies are largely unaffected by others of their ilk, or within the conte...

A ram pressure stripping toy model for jellyfish galaxies Jul 1, 2021 - Aug 27, 2021
An 8 week Undergraduate Research Bursary to fund a summer project to study the causes of jellyfish galaxies. The student intends to provide a model that could give "clues" about the right initial conditions to solve a real-world physics problem.

Simulating the Vibrational Dynamics and Electronic Structure of Molecules with Quantum Computing Oct 1, 2023 - Sep 30, 2026
Development of theoretical and computational strategies for making Quantum Computing (QC) applicable to the full quantum description of matter.
