The astrophysics group in Exeter was founded in 2001 (or thereabouts?). See here for a look at the group circa September 2004, and here for a list of current members of the group.

Please add details of your own work and areas of research.

Prof. Matthew Bate (Head of Group) - SPH simulations of star formation.

Prof. Mark McCaughrean (On leave of absence) - Infrared observations of star formation regions, HH objects, low mass stars and brown dwarfs
