Following the first observation of gravitational waves in 2015, we have now observed close to 100 signals from merging black holes and neutron stars. Read more
Laser interferometers have long been used to probe fundamental physics phenomena, from disproving the existence of the theorized ether well over a hundred years ago to making the first direct detections of gravitational waves in recent years. Read more
This project would involve setting up a large (>100 Mpc) cosmological simulation in the Modified Gravity (MOND) framework, but supplemented with 11 eV sterile neutrinos to make up the same total dark energy and matter density as in the Lambda Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM) cosmology. Read more
We recently invented a method where quantum gates with trapped ions are executed by the application of voltages to a microchip in the presence of a few global radiation fields analogous to the operation of transistors in a classical computer. Read more
At Sussex we have recently realized a new generation of ion chips which incorporate an X-junction ion trap array as well as integrated current carrying wires required to implement high-fidelity 2-qubit gates. Read more
A consortium led by. Universal Quantum. , a University of Sussex spin-out company, has been awarded a £7.5m grant from Innovate UK’s Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund to build a scalable quantum computer that can correct its own errors and apply this technology to high-impact problems in the aerospace industry.

CONTEXT. Most high- and intermediate-mass stars are in stable multiple systems, usually binary systems where the two stars pursue elliptical orbits round each other, but quite often higher-order multiples involving three or more stars. Read more

CONTEXT. Interstellar clouds, and the star clusters they spawn, are chaotic systems, due to the non-linearity of the processes that drive their evolution -- viz. Read more

CONTEXT. When two interstellar clouds collide at high speed, they produce a shock-compressed layer, which becomes gravitationally unstable and fragments, producing a cluster of stars. Read more

In the past decade filaments have been recognised as a major structural element of the interstellar medium, the densest of these filaments hosting the formation of most stars. Read more

Cosmic dust is often seen as an annoyance by astronomers, with over half the light ever emitted by stars in the Universe having been absorbed by a dust grain. Read more
