Biography
I am an applied mathematician at the University of St Andrews, conducting research in solar physics.
Research areas
In particular, my major areas of research are:
- the evolution of the Sun's global magnetic field;
- coronal heating via nanoflares;
- diagnosing the nature of 3D magnetic reconnection.
For further information, please see my personal website.
