I am a Royal Society
University Research Fellow and Reader in Physics at the Clarendon Laboratory,
University of Oxford. I hold a Tutorial Fellowship at Magdalen College,
where I am Tutor for Admissions. I work in the Departments of Physics and Materials on Correlated
Electron Systems and Quantum Spin dynamics. I am also working on an
experiment to build a "polarization
synchrotron". This device sets up a superluminal accelerated
polarization current distribution, which produces electromagnetic
radiation with interesting properties.
