The Astrophysics Group
|
Welcome to the Astrophysics Group. Here we briefly introduce the group
members, their main research area and their contact details. Each CSIRO
staff member can be reached be email - Firstname.Lastname at csiro.au
- and by phone. For staff based at the ATNF Headquarters in Marsfield
use (02) 9372 xxxx (in Australia) and +61 2 9372 xxxx
(from overseas); the 4-digit internal extension is listed below.
Since September 2012 our group has a
twitter feed. Regular updates
are provided by Simon Johnston, Assistant Director of CASS and
Leader of the Astrophysics Group. Our goal is to communicate the group's
latest astrophysics results, publications and important events to fellow
astronomers and the media. - All astrophysics and related publications
are on ADS,
(e.g., papers based on ATCA, Parkes, or Mopra observations).
