Funded Activity Summary

Super-AGB Stars: the Missing Link? By being the first to investigate a specific class of stars, Australia will also be the first to reap the scientific rewards from the many applications that will follow - including the chemical history of the Galaxy and how globular clusters form. We will also develop large-scale computing tools using the latest in cluster computing technology to study the multi-dimensional character of a special class of supernova explosion. We extend a fruitful collaboration with a super-computer centre in the US and also train graduate students in advanced computing techniques for Australia's future, in both science and other applications and technologies.
