Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-09416-8 (ISBN)
Simon Murphy is Postdoctoral Research Assistant at Sydney Institute for Astronomy. His research interests are the plethora of phenomena found in A-type stars, especially chemical peculiarities and pulsation and the development of novel data analysis practices, such as Super-Nyquist Asteroseismology and Phase Modulation analysis. He is involved in organising the Kepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium (KASC) working group on classical pulsators. Simon Murphy is the winner of a Runner up prize in “Experienced Presenter” category for oral presentation at UCLan’s graduate research conference, 2012, the Winner of “Best Poster” category at UCLan’s graduate research conference, 2011 and the Selina Bright scholarship for best exam results at the University of Manchester in 2010.
