Summary of research interests

Dr Daw joined Sheffield in July 2003 and is a member of UKDMC, working on the design and commissioning of the ZEPLIN-2 and ZEPLIN-MAX liquid xenon experiments, and on the analysis of data from ZEPLIN-1. Before joining Sheffield he worked for five years on the LIGO gravitational wave observatory in the USA. For his PhD he worked on the American axion search experiment - dark matter, but not as we know it!

Dr Daw is currently working on gravitational wave data analysis, as a member of the LIGO scientific collaboration, and on searches for dark matter through the EURECA and DRIFT experiments.
