Astronomy & Astrophysics
Macquarie University is a highly active, rapidly growing centre of astronomical research excellence and is in close proximity to both the Anglo-Australian Observatory and Australia Telescope National Facility. The developing strong links offer valuable synergies and opportunities for collaborations in astronomy and astronomical instrumentation and astrophotonics. Current research strengths include wide-field astronomy, optical, infrared and radio studies of planetary nebulae and supernova remnants, stellar proper motions, and theoretical studies of shock-waves, star formation and black holes.
