The stellar astrophysics group studies the formation of stars and their planetary systems, the properties of stars, and how stars effect their environments. We offer alternative start dates for your research degree, commencing in September, January and March for maximum flexibility. September 2024 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 June 2024, EU/International is 1 May 2024, January 2025 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 November 2024, EU/International is 1 September 2024, March 2025 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 December 2024, EU/International is 1 November 2024. September 2025 entry: Deadline for home students is 1 June 2025, EU/International is 1 May 2025.
We pursue observational programmes in the X-ray, ultraviolet, optical, infrared, mm and radio bands using ground-based (e.g. JCMT, eMerlin) and space-borne observatories (Kepler, Herschel, XMM-Newton).
By combining photometric, spectroscopic and imaging observations we unravel the interactions between the stars and their environments, and the processes within the stars themselves.
We additionally pursue theoretical and computational studies of how Sun-like stars form in collapsing clouds, and how low-mass stars, brown dwarfs and planets form in protostellar discs. Finally, we also investigate the evolution of massive stars and supernovae.
