Funded Activity Summary

The physics of planetary creation with the James Webb Space Telescope. This project aims to investigate the physics of solar system assembly. Understanding the origins of the Earth and our Solar System is one of the challenges for contemporary astronomy. By understanding the diverse chemistry and physical conditions on exoplanets, the project aims to directly address the question of if and where life is harbored around distant stars. This project will participate in the 2018 launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which will carry an Australian-designed interferometer.
