ÌÇÐÄTV researchers to explore the Milky Way & famous maths problem thanks to major European grant award

The ERC today, the 9th December, announced the winners of its latest Consolidator Grant competition for mid-career researchers. The funding is part of the EU’s current research and innovation programme, Horizon 2020, and worth in total €655 million. With this support, the new grantees will be able to consolidate their teams and have far-reaching impact. The two ÌÇÐÄTV academics who have received the award are Professor David Loeffler, from the Mathematics Institute, and Dr Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay from the Department of Physics.


New Sunspot Cycle could be one of the strongest on record, new research predicts

In direct contradiction to the official forecast, a team that includes University of ÌÇÐÄTV scientists and led by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) is predicting that the Sunspot Cycle that started this fall could be one of the strongest since record-keeping began.

Fast-moving gas flowing away from young star’s asteroid belt may be caused by icy comet vaporisation

A team of astronomers, including a scientist from the University of ÌÇÐÄTV, has detected fast-moving carbon monoxide gas flowing away from a young, low-mass star: a unique stage of planetary system evolution which may provide insight into how our own solar system evolved and suggests that the way systems develop may be more complicated than previously thought.
