Rwy'n ddarlithydd prifysgol ac astroffisegydd sy'n gweithio ym maes planedau all-solar. Rwy'n ymwneud â datblygu cenadaethau ac arsyllfeydd newydd i nodweddu atmosfferau ecsoblanedau, yn enwedig cenhadaeth ESA Ariel, yn ogystal â Twinkle a chenhadaeth EXCITE NASA. Rwyf hefyd yn cymryd rhan mewn arsylwadau ecsoblanedol cylch 1 a chylch 2 JWST mewn cydweithrediad ag IoA Caergrawnt. Mae gen i ddiddordeb mewn deall prosesau atmosfferig a planedol mewn is-Neptunes cyfundrefn dymherus a chewri nwy, a sut mae'r rhain yn ymwneud â chwestiynau sylfaenol ffurfio planed ac amrywiaeth y boblogaeth allblanedol. Mae gen i ddiddordeb hefyd mewn astrobioleg, yn enwedig y potensial ar gyfer biosfferau mewn is-Neptunes tymherus a chewri nwy, sut y gallwn bennu amlder bydoedd sy'n dwyn bywyd (y fL ffactor yn yr hafaliad Drake) a sut y gallai arsylwadau ecsoblanedol allu cyfyngu damcaniaethau o darddiad bywyd.

Nodweddiad/dadansoddiad atmosfferig o fydoedd a allai fod yn fyw ynddynt i adnabod biolofnodion.

Archwilio bydoedd Is-Neptunes a "Hycean" gyda JWST (mewn cydweithrediad â N. Madhusudhan).
- Rwy'n cyd-fynd â JWST GO 2722:
'Chemical Disequilibrium in a Temperate sub-Neptune'. Tua 20 awr. Gwnaethom ddefnyddio NIRISS, NIRSpec a MIRI i gael sbectrwm trosglwyddo'r is-Neifion K2-18 b o 0.6 i 12 micron. - Yr wyf yn cyd-fynd ar JWST GO rhaglen 3557:'A JWST Search for Missing Methane'. Tua 70 awr. Rydym yn defnyddio NIRISS, NIRSpec a MIRI i gael sbectra trosglwyddo ar gyfer 4 is-Neptune / Neifion maint planedau: ymgeiswyr Hycean posibl.

Modelu ystadegol
- Gweler fy mhapur yn MNRAS ar y cysyniad "cenhadaeth DRAKE," sy'n rhagweld ansicrwydd stastastistaidd ar fL, amlder ffactor bywyd yn yr hafaliad Drake.
- Mae gen i ddiddordeb mewn datblygu modelau atmosfferig i hyrwyddo ein quanitification o signalau biolofnod.

Arsylwadau JWST
- Gweler y rhaglen arsylwadol Is-Neifion JWST uchod.
- Rwy'n gweithio ar optimeiddio biblinell JWST i echdynnu sbectra atmosfferig. Rwy'n datblygu JexoPipe, ac hyd yma rwyf wedi cymhwyso hyn i WASP-39 b (gweler fy mhapur diweddar yn MNRAS) a K2-18 b. Datblygwyd JexoSim, efelychydd arsylwi parth amser hefyd i ddarparu data mewnbwn ffug ar gyfer piblinellau, yr ydym yn gobeithio ei ddiweddaru yn fuan.

- Rwy'n arwain y cawr cŵl W / G a'r dyluniad ar gyfer yr arolwg hwn ar gyfer y genhadaeth Twinkle sydd ar ddod. Y nod yw samplu nifer fawr o blanedau nwyon tymherus oer: "cyswllt coll" rhwng y Iau poeth a chewri oer ein Cysawd Solar ein hunain. Byddwn yn dadansoddi ar gyfer cyfansoddiad, prosesau atmosfferig a thueddiadau lefel sampl i siartio'r gofod paramedr hwn a archwiliwyd yn wael. Gweler ein efelychiad rhagarweiniol / astudiaeth adalw yn MNRAS (Booth et al 2024).

Arsylwadau HST
- Rydym yn dadansoddi data sbectrosgopeg tramwyo HST hefyd. Gyda'm myfyriwr Luke Booth, rydym wedi gweithio ar nodweddu awyrgylch LTT-9779 b, planed yn anialwch poeth Neifion, a hefyd ar newidiadau yn awyrgylch y Jupiter HD poeth 209458 b dros wahanol gyfnodau.

Ariel
- Rwyf wedi bod yn cymryd rhan helaeth mewn efelychiadau perfformiad ar gyfer cenhadaeth Ariel (lansio 2029). Datblygais hefyd y biblinell Ariel wreiddiol, ADaRP, a sawl fersiwn o efelychydd Ariel, ExoSim. Rwyf wedi gwasanaethu fel Efelychiadau Ariel W / G plwm ac ar sawl gweithgor segment a gwyddoniaeth daear. Rwy'n cynnull yr Ariel W / G ar wyddoniaeth ategol. Rwy'n gyd-I ar grant Ariel Caerdydd UKSA.

CYFFROI
- Cynhaliais ein efelychiadau perfformiad ac rwy'n gydweithredwr NASA ar EXCITE, arsyllfa balŵn stratosfferig i arsylwi spectra cromlin cam allblaned.
