Research

Galaxy formation and evolution. Gas kinematics of galaxies using the HI 21-cm spectral line of neutral hydrogen. Radio observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), also known as the Paul Wild Observatory in Narrabri, named after John Paul Wild, Chief of CSIRO's Division of Radiophysics and later Chairman of CSIRO (1978-1985). Study of galaxy groups, e.g. Dorado Group with V.A. Kilborn et al.

Current and planned major HI surveys of galaxies:

• "HI Parkes All Sky Survey" (HIPASS) [4]
• "Local Volume HI Survey" (LVHIS), conducted with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) in Narrabri - Principal Investigator
• "ASKAP HI All-Sky Survey" (known as WALLABY) - Principal Investigator
• HI surveys with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA)
