个人简介

Mark Norris graduated from Durham with a MSci in Physics in 2004, followed by a PhD in Astrophysics in 2008. From 2008-2012 he worked as a Research Associate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, working on observational studies of galaxy formation, including the RESOLVE and AIMSS surveys. In 2012 Mark moved to the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg Germany to work as a postdoctoral fellow. His research at MPIA involved a combination of observational studies of compact stellar system and galaxy formation, and leading the effort to outline science projects for the LINC-NIRVANA instrument on the Large Binocular Telescope

研究领域

His main area of research involves the observational study of compact stellar systems, these enigmatic small stellar systems lie in the transition region between large star clusters (like globular clusters) and true galaxies.

Mark has wide research interests in the general area of studying how galaxies form and evolve.
