Course summary
OVERVIEW
Our strong collaborations with UK and international institutions contribute to an excellent environment for top quality research.
- We lead QuantIC, the UK's four Quantum Technology Hub
- We host two EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training
- We are a member of Scottish Universities Physics Alliance (SUPA)
Research groups
We cover a wide range of topics, including solar and plasma physics, cosmology and radio astronomy. Much of our research in solar physics concentrates on the theory, diagnostics and observation of solar flares, complementing our work in more general plasma theory and atmospheric plasmas.
Extreme Light
What could you do if you had a camera so fast that is can freeze light in motion? Or a quatum sensing device that can measure the path taken by a single photon with a precision of a single atom? We are developing the techonlogies that will enable new forms of imaging with applications ranging from seeing behind and through walls to quantum microscopy.
Imaging concepts
We conduct research into new imaging techniques at optical and radio-frequency wavelengths and work closely with collaborators in industry, biology and medicine to apply these techniques in real-world applications. Our main research fields are computational imaging, spectral imaging and biomedical imaging, particularly in the retina.
