Asteroseismology Summer Intern
Researched into the capability of modest ground-based telescopes to conduct follow-up observations in asteroseismology. Key Responsibilities:- Remote operation of a telescope to perform photometric observations of rapidly oscillating AP (roAp) stars- Aquisition and application of calibration images to photometric data- Creation and optimisation of an observing programme, taking into account target visibility and weather- Image processing using AstroImageJ- Research-level analysis of astronomical data using Python- Written project summary, outlining key outcomes and implications
