Happy to announce my second accepted first author paper, looking into the radio structures of a certain type of active radio galaxy (HERG)! A version is now available to view on the arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2002.07820. Check it out if you're interested! πŸ˜€#astronomy #astrotwitter

The centre of about 1 in 10 galaxies shines really brightly across the whole electromagnetic spectrum. For my PhD, I am using deep images of these galaxies to see if galaxy collisions are responsible for setting certain types of these "Active Galactic Nuclei" off! #PostItNotePhD

Very pleased to say that my interview for BBC Sky at Night Magazine (BBC Sky at Night Magazine) has been published in the July issue! We discussed the topic of my latest work, the importance of galaxy mergers/interactions for triggering quasars #astronomy #quasars

My latest paper is on arXiv today - The LOFAR Two Metre Sky Survey Data Release 2:Β Probabilistic Spectral Source Classifications and Faint Radio Source Demographics - currently the largest spectroscopically identified radio catalogue around... arxiv.org/pdf/2409.11465
