Understanding the gamma-ray emission from the Galactic Centre’s giant outflow The student will model the gamma-ray emission around the Milky Way's central bubble. Theme Galactic archaeology Read more Student intake Open for Honours, PhD students Observatory Mount Stromlo Observatory People Dr Roland Crocker, Supervisor Read more Weighing gravity with galaxy motions By mapping the motions of many galaxies, this project aims to precisely measure the amount and distribution of both visible and dark matter and test Einstein’s theory of gravity.

Theme Structure and evolution of the Cosmos Read more Student intake Open for PhD students Observatory Mount Stromlo Observatory People Professor Matthew Colless, Supervisor Read more What can life on Earth tell us about life in the universe? The focus of this PhD research is the study of the early evolution of life using abundances of chemical elements in different life forms and their environments, at different temporal and spatial scales. Theme Stellar and planetary astronomy Read more Student intake Open for PhD students People Dr Charley Lineweaver, Supervisor Read more Where does Galactic antimatter come from? In this project you will use a new cosmic ray propagation code, CRIPTIC, to model the injection, transport, and final annihilation of positrons in the interstellar medium of the inner Galaxy.
