Non-linear flows of antibodies
Non-linear flows of antibodies will be explored using next generation photonics techniques during this PhD studentship; a partnership between the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester and FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies. Read more
(UoM - Tokyo) Advanced particle tracking and real-time analysis for discoveries at the ATLAS detector at CERN
The matter that we know of constitutes only 15% of our universe - the remaining 85% is an enigmatic form of matter known as dark matter. Read more
(UoM - Tokyo) Understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies in the early universe
James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) launched in 2021 has provided new insights of early universe. Galaxies detected by JWST show that massive and very compact galaxies were formed just after a few hundred million years from the Big Bang. Read more
(UoM - Tokyo) Probing the early Universe with Simon Observatory
Simons Observatory (SO) is a new Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) Observatory located in the high Atacama Desert in northern Chile. Read more

Provide summary of research project (300 words). The main objective of the project is to develop a new class of materials and effective methods for hydrogen production in the process of water/seawater splitting by infrared-visible-ultraviolet sunlight using plasmonic non-noble materials. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Anatomy of Critical Unstable Qubits
The central objective of the project will be to systematically analyse in depth a novel class of unstable qubits, which were discovered recently by the Principal Supervisor and his research team*, and are called Critical Unstable Qubits (CUQs). Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Search for dark-matter particles using novel quantum technologies
This project is seeking to address two of the most outstanding issues in our understanding of the universe. why is the universe dominated by matter without any significant anti-matter and what is the nature of dark-matter which is responsible for 85% of the mass in the universe, but is yet to be directly detected.
