This honours research developed numerical models of the inner radio structure of Centaurus A using the FLASH relativistic hydrodynamics code, and compared the predictions with observations of the galaxy.

Modelling the oscillations of Red Clump stars using stellar evolution codes to study their internal structure.

You will model stellar spectra with spots to improve the spectrum analysis for some of the active stars observed by the million-star spectroscopic GALAH Survey.

This has wide potential applications to chemical and dynamical studies of galaxies from two-dimensional  integral field unit (IFU) spectroscopy.

We have recently demonstrated a novel technique to recover sub-dwarf M stars from the combination of VISTA infra-red and SkyMapper photometry.

This Honours project was designed to complement the High Efficiency and Resolution Multi-Element Spectroscopy (HERMES) project being undertake at the AAT.

The successful applicant will work on one of several software related projects for the DREAMS infrared surveyor

This short project will using existing data for a sample of red giant stars from the OGLE II and III, and MACHO surveys.

In this project, the student would study both the spectral and structural properties of the thermal electron density and magnetic fields in the ionised gas phase of the Milky Way.

In this project, we have worked on developing and comparing empirical pressure-temperature (P-T) phase diagrams of water, Earth, and terrestrial life, to quantify the terrestrial limits on the habitability of water and help identify the factors that cause some terrestrial water to be uninhabited. 

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.

This project will study red spirals in detail, and aim to understand what levels of star formation persist and for how long. We will use optical and infrared data to measure current rates of star formation and find out what we have been missing due to dust extinction.

Our team is looking for enthusiastic Honours, Masters and PhD students with a strong background in Maths, Physics, or Computer Science who want to work on some of the most important questions currently discussed in near-field cosmology community.
