In each project, students will utilise data from some of the world’s most powerful radio telescopes, including ASKAP, Parkes, and the Jansky VLA to study the magnetised gas in and around the radio lobes inflated by supermassive black holes.

Using both the Wide-Field Spectrograph (WiFeS) on the ANU 2.3m telescope and the 1.4 GHz radio band on the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), the student will address how the radio jets from the supermassive black hole interact with the Seyfert host galaxy to affect the evolution of the galaxy.

With this project we will be using the newly automated ANU 2.3m telescope and the powerful WiFeS optical spectrograph to perform a time-series measurement of luminous active galaxies (AGN) using the technique of Quasar Reverberation Mapping.

Using ANU's SkyMapper Telescope we follow up on gravitational-wave events from LIGO/Virgo to characterise the ejecta from neutron-star collisions.

In this project we will be able to investigate the environmental effect on star formation and galaxy evolution in individual galaxies falling into the cluster through radio observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN).

The main aim of this project is to parallelise an existing Fortran program to take advantage of the parallel processing environment of the supercomputer raijin, located on the ANU campus.

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.

We aim to build a novel framework to study supermassive black holes via their unique gravitational wave signatures providing a multi-messenger tool to constrain galaxy formation in the early universe.

In this project you will use some combination of theoretical population synthesis calculations and/or analysis of public data from the Fermi telescope to examine the question: what is the real origin of the Galactic Centre Gamma-Ray Excess?
