Sandra Chapman awarded the 2022 RAS Chapman Medal

Congratulations to SJ Spencer who has successfully defended their PhD thesis entitled Particle-in-cell simulations of Raman scattering in the kinetic regime for direct drive inertial confinement fusion, under the supervision of Prof Tony Arber and Dr Keith Bennett. They will now head to UCLA for a research position working with Prof Paolo Alves. Well done!

Duncan Barlow has successfully defended his PhD thesis entitled Inertial Confinement Fusion: Energy Transport and Shock Ignition, under the supervision of Prof. Tony Arber. Duncan has moved on to a postdoctoral position at York. Congratulations!
