Welcome to Rigel
I'm a research astronomer, currently working at the Curtin Institute of Radio Astronomy at Curtin University of Technology, where I'm also the outreach coordinator for the group. You may have heard my voice on the Jodcast where I write and produce the News each month, and occasionally as a presenter. Welcome to my little corner of the interweb, make yourself at home.
What's here?
What you will find here: astronomy related resources, articles I've written for Macc Astro's Newsletter, my current publication list, and a mostly astronomy-themed blog (which inlcudes the scripts for the Jodcast News).
Astronomy resources: you can now invesitage what different astronomical objects look like when observed in different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum using the multi-wavelength viewer. There's also a pretty interface for the meteor detector at Jodrell (JBOMD) with some background and explanations (set up for Curtin's open day).
(There's also some photos of the Jodrell Bankers at the christmas party, 16th December 2005.)
LookUP from Astronomy Blog
Here's a neat little gadget from Stuart that lets you query a whole host of astronomical databases. Try typing in the name of any astronomical object you like and see if it works....
(If you've gone blank and can't think of anything, try searching for the Tardis.)
