Hintze Centre for Astrophysical Surveys
Addressing the major problems of modern physics/astrophysics by augmenting our participation in the major international surveys that are designed to address them.
Ice and Fluid Dynamics
Environmental fluid dynamics, applied to sea ice, ice sheets and ocean interactions.
Ion channels
Our research is focused on understanding the intimate relationship between ion channel structure and function; we are working to understand their molecular mechanism of operation at an atomic level as well as their role in physiology and disease.
Ion trap quantum computing
Testing and developing ideas in quantum computing using laser-manipulated trapped ions.
Laboratory astroparticle physics
cosmic magnetic fields, turbulence, quantum plasmas, fusion energy, quantum gravity
Laser-plasma accelerator group
We study laser-driven plasma accelerators and their applications.
Macroscopic Quantum Matter
Our research concentrates upon the fundamental physics of electronic, magnetic, atomic and space-time quantum matter including the development of instrumentation allowing humans to visualise or perceive quantum phenomena.
Magnetism for Intelligent Devices (MIND)
Our research is aimed at shaping futuristic computing architecture. We are interested in studying the physics, materials, and engineering aspects involved in developing next-generation memory, logic, and brain-inspired computing hardware.
