杜伦大学天文宇宙学的佼佼者

Durham UniversitynamedEurope’s leading centre for space science researchers

Durham Universityhas been named asEurope’s leading university for highly cited researchers in astronomy and cosmology.

The Thomson-Reuters list of the “World’s most influential scientific minds 2014” also saw Durham ranked sixth in the world for the influence of its space science researchers.

Durham was the only UK University to feature in the World Top 10, ranking above prestigious institutions including NASA, The Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics inGermany, and the Harvard Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics in theUSA.

The ranking also reflects the broad range of space science research atDurhamincluding the search for dark matter in the Universe, fundamental cosmology and the evolution of galaxies and black holes.

FourDurhamresearchers were highlighted in the rankings:

Professor David Alexander, a senior member of the Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics, and an international leader in studies of black holes;

Professor Shaun Cole, Deputy Director of Durham’s Institute for Computational Cosmology (ICC), who was recently a joint recipient of the prestigious Shaw Prize in Astronomy;

Professor Carlos Frenk FRS, Ogden Professor of Fundamental Physics and Director of the ICC, who is the recipient of this year’s Royal Astronomical Society Gold Medal for Astronomy, previously awarded to famous scientists such as Babbage, Einstein and Hubble;

And Professor Ian Smail, Head of the Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics, a leading expert on galaxy formation and evolution.

杜伦大学被命名为在天文学和宇宙学内高度引用研究员的欧洲优秀大学。

汤姆森路透列举了“2014年全球最具影响力的科学思想”,从中我们可以看到杜伦大学在对空间科学研究的影响中排名世界第六。

杜伦大学是唯一一所排名世界前十的英国大学,排名超过了许多著名的机构包括美国国家航空航天局(NASA),在德国的马克思普朗克天体物理学和在美国哈佛的史密森天文物理中心。

排名也反映了杜伦大学对宇宙科学研究的广泛性包括了宇宙中的暗物质,基本宇宙学,星系的演化和黑洞。

在排名中4名杜伦研究员被提到:

·David Alexander教授,天文学和天体物理学中心的高级成员,是一名黑洞研究的国际领导。

·Shaun Cole教授,杜伦大学研究所计算宇宙学副院长,最近获得了著名的在天文学方面邵逸夫奖。

·Carlos Frenk FRS教授,基础物理学的奥格登教授和ICC主任,今年获得天文学的皇家天文学会金牌,该奖先前授予著名的科学家例如巴贝奇,爱因斯坦和哈勃。

· Lan Smail教授,天文学和天体物理学中心的负责人,是星系形成和演化方面的知名专家。
