The Auckland cosmology group, led by Richard Easther, works to understand the origin and evolution of the universe, from the Big Bang through to the present day and into the (apparently) infinite future. We collaborate widely, and are involved with the Vera Rubin Observatory and the LISA gravitational wave mission.
Resources
We create simulation tools, visualisations and write about developments in the field for all audiences. Dig in…
Introductions to ideas in physics and cosmology.
Research
We focus on problems which overlap with open questions in particle physics, from the nature of dark matter and dark energy through to high-energy dynamics of the early universe, and the dynamics of black holes and gravitational waves.
