Black Hole

Lensing of space time around a black hole. At Oxford we study black holes observationally and theoretically on all size and time scales - it is some of our core work.

  • About
  • Teaching
  • Publications

At Oriel, I tutor Mathematical Methods (CP3 & CP4 papers) for first year undergraduate students, Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics (A1) for second year students, as well as Symmetry & Special Relativity (B2) and General Relativity (B5) for third years.

In the Physics department, I teach (9 lectures on Cosmology) and was the coordinator for the C1 Astrophysics major option for fourth year undergraduates (2014-2023). Visit the C1 site for lecture notes and problem sheets.
I also used to co-teach the second year Statistical Mechanics and Thermal Physics course (A1) with Prof. Alex Schekochihin (2016-2018) and Prof. Michael Barnes (2019-2021). My lecture notes can be downloaded below.
