  2. Galaxy formation and evolution

    The Galaxy Formation and Evolution Research Group looks at population studies of dwarf galaxies up to the most massive clusters of galaxies, supermassive black holes and detailed modelling of the internal structure of galaxies. Discover more about our expertise, who we work with and meet the researchers.

  3. Computational and theoretical galaxy formation

    The computational and theoretical galaxy formation group within the Astrophysics Research Institute uses state-of-the-art simulations on supercomputing facilities. Find out more about our research.

  4. Star formation and evolution and stellar populations

    By studying the gas and stars that shape the Milky Way as well as other galaxies in the local Universe, we can understand the life cycles of stars like our Sun, unravel the chemical enrichment history of the universe, and probe the existence of black holes across a wide mass spectrum.

  5. Prospero@5 symposium

    LJMU staff and students are invited to this special research symposium to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the commissioning of Prospero, LJMU’s central high performance computing (HPC) facility.

  6. Five years of Prospero

    Five years ago, Liverpool John Moores University switched on Prospero, a High-Performance Computing (HPC) cluster named for the wise magician in Shakespeare’s The Tempest.
