My research is in the general field of high energy astrophysics. In particular I work on the physics of extragalactic jets, their effect on the environment of Active Galaxies and the way in which these jets are produced from accretion discs surrounding black holes. I also contibute to the Honours program in Astrophysics through a course of lectures on High Energy Astrophysics.
