  Black hole astrophysics through timing studies
University of Leicester College of Science & Engineering
  Research Group: Astronomy and Space Science
  Dr S Vaughan, Prof G Wynn
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
Accreting black holes hold many mysteries despite five decades of study. They are too small to image directly and so to understand the physics of such systems we must rely on what we can learn from the variations in brightness and the energy spectrum of the light they emit.
