My research focuses on strongly interacting quantum systems at the interface between condensed matter physics and ultracold atomic gases. In particular, I am interested in the interplay between few- and many-body physics in scenarios ranging from superfluids to quantum impurity problems to...

I work on the study of massive and supermassive stars (10-100,000 solar masses); the first generations of stars in the universe (Pop III stars); evolution of rotating massive stars and the spin of their remnants (including predictions for GW sources); mixing and transport processes in the...

Understanding factors related to student retention and experience in physics and astrophysics major units. Using quantitative (surveys) and qualitative data (interviews with students) this project aims to explore who takes physics and astrophysics major units, why they pursue them, and what...

Glasses are a mystery that confounds modern condensed matter physics, yet disordered, glassy assemblies form from particles at many length sclaes (granules, colloids, atoms). My research aims to uncover the role of structure in the glass transition and how the disordered structure of a glass...

I supervise a wide range of PhD projects on experimental research into the electronic properties of novel quantum materials including topological insulators, graphene, and other atomically thin two-dimensional materials. I am interested in creating a low-power topological transistor, in which an...

My research focuses on the theory of strongly correlated phenomena in cold atomic gases and electron systems. Particular topics of interest include low-dimensional quantum systems, superconductivity and quantum impurities. I was previously part of the Australian Centre of Excellence for Future...

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...
