... Despite new observation methods provided by radar and satellite instrumentation , optical measurements are still important when studying auroras . ... Because of the monochromatic nature of the auroral light, photomultiplier tubes with very narrow band filters were used in the measurements. ... The spectra of the background emissions from atmospheric impurities (clouds, ice crystals, etc.) is rather continuous, and measurements just outside the auroral emission lines are valid for the line itself. ...

Different methods of aperture photometry were applied to images taken a month apart in order to determine which was the most successful at producing repeatability in the data which, as a result of spherical aberration, suffers most dramatically from a position dependent point spread function (PDPSF). The results depend heavily on the size of the aperture radius and the position and size of the background annulus. ...

The main focus of my research is the study of stellar mass in galaxies, in particular: calibration of stellar mass photometric estimators, including testing of stellar population synthesis models; resolved studies of the stellar mass distribution, using imaging, integral field spectroscopy (in collaboration with CALIFA), infrared data constraining the amount and properties of dust (in collaboration with KINGFISH and HeViCS). ...

... High-pressures experiments are mostly aimed at studying phase transformations in solids, synthesising new phases and studying their composition, crystal and magnetic structure, physical and thermodynamical properties. ... The specific feature of investigations at LHPP that distinguishes it from most other high-pressure laboratories is combining in situ measurements with studies at ambient pressure of new high-pressure phases fixed by quenching to liquid nitrogen temperature. ...
