Mathematics and physics research

Combining multi-scale numerical simulations with observational data to advance our knowledge of the Universe.

Focusing on a range of topics in analysis ranging from the pure to the applied end.

Working at the forefront of nuclear physics research, studying the atomic nucleus with a variety of experimental techniques and probes.

Carrying out research primarily in interdisciplinary mathematics that interfaces with other disciplines, ranging from biology, to data science and statistics, to quantum field theory and relativity.

Using mathematical techniques such as asymptotic methods, reduced model analysis and numerical modelling to investigate fluid flows.

Studying theoretical and experimental quantum systems, from the formal mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics to its applications in technology.

Exploring the fundamental properties and interactions of radiation in a range of medical and industrial applications.

Working on a wide range of soft things, from living cells to paints including experimental, and computational research, as well as pure science and work with industrial collaborators.

Studying the atomic nucleus with a variety of theoretical methods and seeking to answer fundamental questions in physics.

Take a look at upcoming maths and physics seminars and other events being held by our School.

We work with industry on technology transfer and commercialising research breakthroughs, while our network of external companies and institutions underpins our renowned Professional Training and research placements.

We have multiple laboratories and equipment to assist with our soft matter, radiation and medical physics, photonics and quantum sciences and experimental nuclear physics research.
