Applied Electromagnetics and Radiation Physics applies cutting edge physics to achieve practical outcomes in areas such as medicine and geophysics.
Our research involves implementations of electromagnetic methods from extremely low frequencies through to light and gamma rays. These methods are used to image materials, perform medical imaging and radiotherapy procedures, and explore the earth’s shallow crust.
Commissioning of a computerised treatment planning system for synchrotron radiotherapy trials
A biomedical imaging project to develop a dedicated x-ray microscopy for high resolution 3D biomedical microscopy.
This research is using advanced modelling software to design an optimum transmitter given weight and size constraints.
