Research within the Department of Physics seeks to explore and explain fundamental aspects of the world we live in, from the smallest subatomic particles to the universe as a whole. Currently, ongoing research projects can be broadly classified within the following research areas:
particle physics
quantum gravity and quantum groups
spintronics and nanotechnology
condensed matter physics
neuroscience
dynamical systems
theoretical physics and relativity
astrophysics and cosmology.
Fundamental, applied and interdisciplinary research is carried out by our faculty and PhD students. Undergraduate and graduate students are involved in range of research-led activities, such as final year projects and summer research internships.
