Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Description The research supported under these programmes covered a broad range of astronomy and astrophysics. Probably the most significant achievement has been mapping the cosmological distribution of matter in a range of wavebands, as well as inferring the distribution of dark matter. Thus we can visualise how dark matter pulls together gas and measure the quantity of star formation that results.
Exploitation Route All important results from these grants form part of the academic research literature, and will be elaborated further by interested specialists.
Sectors Digital/Communication/Information Technologies (including Software),Education

Description This research has primarily been of benefit to the academic community. Its main non-academic impact has been in terms of contribution to outreach, especially in the Royal Observatory Edinburgh Visitor Centre.
