Research & Articles

This article by James Merron, published in Roadsides, explores how the AVN telescope in the Ghana Radio Astronomy Observatory shapes the way space is produced, organised, and experienced.

Magnetic fields in galaxy clusters are still not well understood. This paper by James Chibueze, published in the Nature journal, explores the jets in a particular galaxy in a cluster, and how the structure of these jets can give us clues about the magnetic fields and their effects on the evolution of the galaxies and material in the cluster.
