Dr Simon Murphy

Lecturer

PhD in Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2012, Australian National University

UNSW Canberra

School of Science

I was awarded my PhD in Astronomy & Astrophysics at the Australian National University in 2012. examined populations of young stars in the southern sky, particularly around the nearby open clusters Eta and Epsilon Chamaeleontis. During 2013-2014 I was the Gliese Postdoctoral Fellow at the , Germany, where I identified new stellar moving group members using data from the . I returned to Australia in 2015 to work on the ANU and in 2016 I took up a Vice Chancellor's Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at UNSW Canberra. I am now a Lecturer in Astrophysics in the School of Science where I and into young, low-mass stars in the Solar neighbourhood.��

�Ѳ��focus on identifying and characterising some of the youngest stars in the Solar neighbourhood. These young, nearby star systems are ideal laboratories for understanding early stellar evolution and probing the diverse conditions under which stars and, importantly, planets form. To accomplish this I use observations from a variety of��Ի��, including the��here in Australia. I am also interested in the international��effort, which is developing standards for the discovery, exchange and analysis of astronomical data by computers and astronomers alike.
