We have 16 Other (well being) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Hidden black holes and the search for self-lensing binaries

Supervisory Team: Dr Matthew Middleton. Project description. Binary systems containing high mass stars evolve through a number of stages, and in many cases can appear as a black hole or neutron star orbiting at a large distance from a ‘normal’ companion star. Read more

Levitating microdiamonds towards a test of the quantum nature of gravity

Background. Single nitrogen-vacancy (NV- ) centres in diamond have isolated electronic and nuclear spins which can store quantum information at room temperature for over one second. Read more

University of Reading PhD Opportunities

Our thriving and diverse community of researchers leads the way in understanding the issues that most concern the world today. Join us as a postgraduate researcher at Reading and we will support you at every stage, helping you to deliver research that counts. Read more

Stimulated and Quantum-enhanced Brillouin imaging

Brillouin spectroscopy is an important technique for measuring the visco-elastic properties of biological materials, with applications to fundamental biology, tissue engineering, and drug-discovery. Read more

The effect of General Relativity on super-Eddington accretion

Supervisory Team:  Dr Matthew Middleton. Project description. Compact objects (neutron stars and black holes) can accrete material through a disc which is bright across the EM spectrum. Read more

Resolving the unresolvable: using lenses to map accretion onto black holes and neutron stars

Supervisory Team: Dr Matthew Middleton. Project description. White dwarfs located in the halo of Andromeda (M31) are expected to lens some of the 100s of X-ray bright, accreting compact objects (black holes and neutron stars) located in that galaxy. Read more

In Situ Multimodal Imaging of Crystallisation

This project will use advanced electron and X-ray microscopy in situ liquid cell techniques to gain new insights into the mineralisation process of biomimetic model systems. Read more
