PhD Astronomy- Cosmology and Relativity in London United Kingdom | Queen Mary University of London

Cosmology explores the Universe in its entirety, seeking to decode cosmic enigmas by tackling core inquiries: why the Universe exhibits its observed structure, how it evolved to its present state, its fundamental components, and its ultimate fate. The Cosmology and Relativity Group is globally recognized for its contributions to theoretical and observational cosmology, cosmological relativity, and gravitational wave research, consistently pioneering discoveries about the Universe's nature. Our research encompasses diverse areas of contemporary cosmology, including inflationary theories, dark energy, gravitational waves, relativistic observable predictions, and investigations into the Universe's large-scale structure through radio and optical telescope surveys. We actively participate in major collaborations such as LISA, LIGO-Virgo, Euclid, LSST, SKA, MeerKAT, and HERA, with members leading key initiatives. Strong connections exist with the String Theory Group in Physics and Astronomy and the Geometry, Analysis and Gravitation group in Mathematical Sciences. Weekly seminars, discussion forums, and an active visitor program foster collaboration with international researchers. Prospective PhD candidates can explore our listed research opportunities.
