Rwy'n seryddwr arsylwadol sy'n gweithio ym maes ffurfio galaethau ac esblygiad. Mae fy astudiaethau yn cynnwys ymchwiliadau manwl aml-wavelenght o galaethau a niwclysau galactig gweithredol (AGN), a gynhaliwyd gyda'r prif nod o ddeall y cysylltiad rhwng prosesau tanwydd ac adborth tyllau du enfawr canolog (SMBHs) ac esblygiad eu galaethau cynnal (yr hyn a elwir yn "gyd-esblygiad"). O fewn y cyd-destun cyffredinol hwn, rwy'n arbennig o arbenigol wrth ddadansoddi tarddiad, ffiseg a chineteg y cyfrwng rhyng-serol oer (hy llwch, nwy moleciwlaidd ac atomig) a phriodweddau'r gydran jet radio, gan ddefnyddio data o'r offerynnau mwyaf cystadleuol sy'n gweithredu ar hyn o bryd ar donfeddi milimetr a radio (hy ALMA, JVLA a'r rhagflaenydd SKA MeerKAT).
