Biography
I am primarily interested in cosmology and galaxy formation and evolution using both observational and theoretical approaches. Recently I was one of the leaders of the Supernova Legacy Survey which found that the dark energy was constant in time to a precision of better than 10%, consistent with Einstein’s cosmological constant. I am also interested in star streams as indicators of the dark matter substructure of the Milky Way halo. I has been the Canadian Thirty Meter Telescope Project Director since 2003.
Research Interest
N-body modelling, galactic dynamics, cosmology.
