My interests span a wide range of topics in theoretical physics, including: geometric phases, topological defects in matter and radiation fields, inverse problems (scalar and vector tomography), singular optics, using electrons, atoms and light and the exploration of complex systems using...

I supervise projects in particle physics. My main emphasis is on phenomenology, comparison of predictions with experimental measurements. I follow developments in flavour physics: weak decays of mesons and baryons and their role as indirect probes for physics beyond the standard model. I also...

I offer projects broadly related to supernova explosions and the final stages in the lives of massive stars. Specific topics of interest include fluid dynamics processes in stellar explosions and stellar interiors, birth properties of black holes and neutron stars, supernova light curves and...

My research interests focus on the stars - primarily their structure, evolution and nucleosynthesis. This can involve modelling of mixing in stars, or effects of changing nuclear burning rates; trying to understand why certain elements are more abundant than others; or how the different...

Conventional x-ray imaging is firmly established as an invaluable tool in medicine, security, research and manufacturing. However, conventional methods extract only a fraction of the sample information that is encoded in the x-ray wavefield as it passes through the sample. My research aims to...

I supervise computational projects in electron microscopy imaging for investigating materials at atomic resolution. Some projects centre on analysing experimental data acquired by experimental colleauges in the School, in the Monash Centre for Electron Microscopy (MCEM) and abroad, with the goal...

My primary areas of research activity are two fold: first, studing thermonuclear (X-ray) bursts from accreting neutron stars; and second, searches for optical counterparts of gravitational-wave events with the GOTO telescope network. Projects focussing on thermonuclear bursts will involve...

My research focusses on understanding stars: their evolution and chemical composition, and how they move throughout our galaxy. Most of what we know about the universe comes from starlight, but the detailed interaction between matter and light in the extreme conditions of stellar interiors is...

I supervise a wide range of projects in surface and materials physics, with a particular focus on novel electronic materials such as topological insulators where electrons can be transported without dissipation along the edges of the material. It is hoped that these sorts of materials will one...

I supervise a wide range of projects in stellar astrophysics, with a focus on low and intermediate-mass stars, which have masses similar to or slightly larger than our Sun. This work is carried out within the Centre of Excellence for Astrophysics in 3D: ASTRO 3D. As a member of my group, you...
